I agree I keep all my bikes inside a shed is for lawn mowers. Get the DB Turbolite inside.

I'm in the same boat, the Kuwi looks like it needs a polish up.

No chance of bringing the stuff into the house - the missus would discover how much I have stashed in the garage

stick a little tubular heater in the shed with a thermostat, just enough to keep the damp at bay
