So I have just continued the practice with the B.
I have never done anything more than cover my bikes with a cotton blanket, hook-up tender etc. and store in an unheated garage. Been doing this for 40+ years in the same location and never noticed a rust or moisture issue on any bikes.....This morning it was 5 degrees and -15 below wind chill...Just stating my experience....See you next spring/summer, hopefully....Ride safe
