Default WANTED - Bike storage central Bristol

Hi all,
Once I get my new bike i'll be looking for somewhere to keep it in Bristol. The nearer to the city centre the better.
Any suggestions? I've looked at Big Yellow storage and that's approx £60/month.

Cheers,
AL

I'd just get yourself a good cover, Oxford lock and leave the bike outside. As long as you clean it regularly it should be ok.

Big Yellow Storage is not located that centrally either is it?

For that price you could rent a garage somewhere residential.

For my money, after 12 months, you'd be more than half way there to a new SV anyway if you saved the £60

look up protech shelters. Not exactly 100% secure but one of those with a ground anchor is enough + is bloody brilliant. Mine is full of bike bits so by the time anyone tries to nick it i'll be out with my bit of scaffold pipe.

Protech shelters are the dogs. After nearly a year no damage whatsoever.
