storage

My lovely OH,who I have to say has been very understanding, would quite like the dining room back. This week I was tasked with sorting the shed to enable bikes to be stored in there. Used some of the tips from a thread on here. Note the cunning plan, two older bikes stored, space for my new...

I'm sure many of have done similar but proud of my efforts this weekend to get all of my tools stored away properly!

Hi all, Me and the family are going to the World Athletics Championships at the Olympic Stadium next year. We're staying about 6-7 miles from the venue and driving in is not a viable option. Train is a bit "round the houses" and we'd be on it for 1.5 hours to get where we are going. Cycling...

I seem to remember a while a go there where some very smart ideas for bike storage indoors but i cant find the thread . The one that sticks in my mind was a floating shelf but i cant remember any more details so i can make one . Any ideas out there ?

Hello, I'm planning one of the last parts of our house renovation, the bike storage and downstairs loo. The loo is already in place, just waiting for it's cubicle building around it, it'll be a similar size to a standard cubicle in a public toilet - details beyond this are irrelevant, lets...

My new partners place has 3 storage heaters that are controlled by an Electratech system and a smart heat controller,we had to turn the electric off briefly and now the storage heaters won't work,the controlling system is an archaic thing from the mid eighties and there's very little information...

Living in a ground floor flat with limited space and a wife with a serious aversion to seeing my bike (and golf clubs, turbo trainer, football kit etc.) inside, I need to find a suitable solution. We have a private rear garden for the flats where I have a frame my brother made as part of his...

Tonight, I was trying to work out if I could 'hang' a couple of bikes from the roof joists of my shed I got one up there, secure and hanging, BUT the way it hung is that all the weight of the bike is taken by the handlebars. The bike is about 1.5mtrs off the floor, hung parallel to the floor...

Hi guys Anyone got any good recommendations for storage for my bike stuff? I currently have 3 or 4 plastic boxes with shoes, helmets, gilets, lights, tools, inner tubes, cleaning stuff etc etc. I was wondering if anyone had found a cool way to organise and store all this stuff - so that 1) it...

So i have a new carbon bike and have done exactly one ride on it. I go to adjust the saddle height in the garage today and noticed there is now a scratch about 3 quarter of an inch long on the rear triangle. I know scratches are going to happen but am most annoyed as i didn't do it and the...

Hi, does anyone have any suggestions for where to store 2 hard case bike boxes at or near Stuttgart airport? (Going by the info on the airport website their lockers would be too small). We have used the CTC poly bags before, but this time we're camping, so I'd feel more comfortable using the...

Hi all, How are tyres to be maintained - are you supposed to pick bits out of them, wipe gritting salt off and/or fix minor cuts in them? Now I have a battery of spare tubes and tyres hanging in a fairly damp shed, how should these be stored and do they degrade? Also, what's the life...

With our new bikes arriving next week, we're about to have a bit of a storage problem in the garage. Been looking around the web and there seem to be any number of "solutions". With the space we have available, the wall hooks that hang the bike vertically against the wall look like the most...

I am moving to Brighton soon with my two bikes. Unfortunately there is no space inside the flat I have rented for a bike, and only racks outside on the pavement. I can leave my city bike there but not my road bike. I have been trying to see if there is any private indoor bike parking/storage I...
