My bikes used to live outside in all weathers so found a piece of garden and claimed it as mine for my cave.
Concrete base, single block for frame work to go on,
Pick up some hoarding sheets 8'x4'
Door and trim fitted and roof felted,
That's how it was left for about 9 months before deciding that I need more room!!!
So the area just in front of the door a decided would make a nice extension to the cave,
Dug the base out about 10 foot square and fill with hardcore,
Base concreted and barriers to stop the dog getting on it!!
Blocks laid and acquired a composite door from a friend,
Frame work up and my sons sr 125 needed new wheel bearings.
Door fitted,
Roof boards and walls fitted, mate hot felting the roof.
Bit of feather edge boarding and voilà,
View from inside old into new,
Since putting this up I've crossed braced the roof due to a slight sagging in the middle.
Trying to convince her indoors that I need to extent another 8foot but she's not having none of it!!
