winter storage

[paddy2]

got a few more bikes this year so old ones in shed,some in spare room but 2 or 3 in loft.loft is fully boarded so i can work up there but will the bikes stand up to the cold harsh winter?

got full bike covers on them then blankets/covers on top of them and same with my spare wheels,will i find just a pile of rust in the new year?  

cheers guys any info would be good

I'm no expert in it mate but i'd guess they will be ok, after all they're still here after 25+ years.

As long as you aren't sticking them on your roof Pad, they'll be fine mate

if you have a wife put her in the shed then you can get more in your bedroom

                    is that before or after you wipe your _ _ _ _  on the bedroom  curtains

Can't see a problem with storing in a boarded loft  

Whereas a shed or even worse a garage aren't the best .

If you have to use outdoor storage ,,, keep a check  every week to wipe em down and cover with a dust sheet (breathable ) rather than polythene or plastic sheet to keep frost off , stop condensation too leading to rust .

Don't forget to lightly WD or light oil any bare metal parts.
