Where I live, 1k gets you a decent commuter bike without a motor. Doesn't even matter much if used or new. Then you spend ~200 on parts every year. It's outside 24/7, I don't have a garage.

I don't have a garage either, but I want to get a shed so I can stop spending $200/yr in repairs.

Anything but carrying the bike up from the basement every morning

Oh god that would stop me from using my bike so fast.

Oh yeah it took me years to finally find an apartment where the landlord would allow me to get a storage shed. I'm glad I can finally own a bike.

Leaving the bike outside all the time was always taught to me as a no-no that'll pretty much instantly ruin your bike, so I hadn't considered it.

Now though I'm moving this year or next year and I'm unsure how we'll manage with my shed. Can it be moved? Will someone buy it? 🤔 Eh, I guess I'll see.
