Drew, that's a great looking cover, thanks for the link. Is it wide enough to store two bikes in, or do you find that it's only big enough for a single bike?

Here's what I have if it's helpful! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D5HCYS6J?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_2&th=1 On Sunday, May 31, 2026 at 10:00:26 AM UTC-4 Bruce Byker James wrote:
Thanks everyone for the suggestions! I think I'm going to look into some grill / firewood covers—I hadn't thought about that for some reason, even though I just bought a new grill with a cover! I'll try to remember to post some pictures and what I go with once I do.

Hi, I have a couple bicycle cover from the Cover Store. They are very good and last years.
Maybe a motorcycle cover would work out? They seem to be more heavy duty and resistant to the elements. On Thursday, May 28, 2026 at 12:38:06 PM UTC-7 Bruce Byker James wrote:
That's a good thought. I actually have a bike stored elsewhere under a tarp, but that's a situation where it's under the tarp most of the year, then I visit, take it out once, then put it back a week later. It takes too long to remove and replace it, though, for this use, because I take it on many short rides throughout the week. The nice thing about the cover I currently use is that it's elastic at the bottom and goes on and off quickly.

UV resistant tarps from Harbor Freight are as good as any and they have grommets to take up any excess. No cover is going to last overly long outdoors, depending on how much direct sunlight it may endure. They're all throwaways eventually, no matter what any sales pitch my say. It just doesn't pay to invest more than you have to. I've had a snow blower outdoors under tarps for years, out of direct sunlight.

Has anyone come across a heavy-duty bike cover made out of something thick that will last a while? I bought a cheap one a couple of years ago that's starting to rip now, so I'm looking for something better. It doesn't need to be waterproof, just sturdy and large enough to accommodate the long wheelbase.
In case you wonder: This is for storing my Clem outside on my porch in the city, where it takes about three days to get a coating of dust. Locked up well, of course.
Thanks,
