Anyone ever try one of these or similar garages?

Post by YoDude »

As it is I don't really have a good place to park either of my bikes inside any sort of shelter. No garage.
So I've been looking around at different ideas actual buildings sheds and then I found THIS.
So, I'm wondering if anyone have ever used one of these or similar and how you liked it how well it worked or any comments you'd care to leave.

My neighbor has something similar for his car made out of pvc pipe and some kind of cover material. He replaces it every 5 yrs or so. Storms and high wind take their toll as well as his cats who climb on it and claw the hell out of it.

Those are nice, I have the same type of issue, as my shed is at the bottom of my hill on my property. Needless to say, I don't ride after any sort of significant rain, as I just end up stuck in the mud.

But I'll tell you what, I forgot all about those type when I saw these.

Those look real nice, but probably out of my price range and the shipping would be atrocious I'm sure. Another drawback is they have wheels and those wheels and my gravel parking area likely wouldn't get along together too well as far as ease of rolling it out and in. I'll keep it in mind though.

Neighbour at my last place had one. He mounted a wheel chock to the driveway... drove right in, hopped off the bike and pulled the lid over. Seemed to work pretty slick. He had it for 3 years before I moved and still seemed to be doing the job.
