The tall one
So I am on the look out for a garage since the place I live in doesn't have one and on top of that the only place where I can park the bike is in the backyard (which mind you is unpaved) so the moment it starts raining my entire lower part of the bike (regardless of the waterproof cover) is covered in water and dirt and that makes me sick to the stomach seeing by brand new chain and sprocket going to hell with every rain/day.
So, I found a self storage space nearby that wanted me to pay $100 for a 5x10 unit
but I think it's not such a good idea not simply because storage spaces are twice as expensive as garage spaces but also because:
1. Unit has steal walls and no climate control - that thing will be an absolute freezer during the winter months
2. no power for a battery tender
3. not a big deal but the unit is 5x10 which is approximately the size of my bike and I can't just ride the bike in but I'll have to parallel park it in there which makes my life a little difficult considering the thing is several inches off the ground.
So the main reason I said all that was to ask the question: how important is temperature control over the winter months (and not CA/FL winter but MA/NH/VT winter).
Also if someone in the Framingham/Natic/*borough/Boston area is willing to make some extra $50/month (for a garage space) and $100 if the unit is temperature controlled - please do let me know
I'm not gonna work on the bike or anything ... I'm just looking for a place to keep her out of the rain and snow and also I want to be able to come pick her up for a ride whenever the weather permits.
