Either buy an old cargo van and keep it in there (make sure that it has no windows so no one can see the bike), or if you live on the first floor, park your bike inside.

Hey man, fellow buffalonian here. Idk if you're dead set on an enclosure or what, but I just ordered a Dowco Guardian WeatherAll cover for my FZ. Reviews were really good and I think it'll stand up to Buffalo weather pretty well. I do have access to a garage for the winter though.

I used a fully enclosed trailer for several years until I had a garage. Worked well.

I recommend keeping it in your living room. Keeping bikes outside is how you get rust.

Do you park the bike in your own property?
Joey__stalin replied:
OP, where are you keeping it? Back yard? Public parking lot in an apartment complex? Assigned parking spot? Patio? A good Dowco cover will do a good job, and definitely get the tires up off the ground via a center stand or other method.
Can anyone recommend someone who fixes bikes? (Some places charge way too much.)

there is no cheaper way to fix your bike than join go bike buffalo and have the friendly mechanics teach you how to fix things yourself. Good knowledge if you break down on the road. if your not do it yourself than i recommend Mr Handlebar on englewood

The suggestions here are all very good, don't forget Shickluna on Hertel near main. Sometimes inexpensive bikes that have not been well maintained end up racking up some big bills at the shop. Many of the jobs you can do yourself as you get more tools and know how. If you are in the sport for the long haul it's worth it to start accumulating tools and learning one repair at a time. The videos on this site are very helpful http://www.parktool.com/blog/repair-help

The Rick Shop on Allen...they are true professionals...do good work...had my bike there for a tune-up and it just seemed better when they were done with it...and it wasn't so $$$...
If you want to help Buffalo's own Community Bike Shop complete some much needed repairs, reach out to Stacy: stacy@gobikebuffalo.org.
Scraping, painting, and ceiling...
With another Buffalo winter approaching, I'm looking for a new indoor trainer and my local bike shop recommends the Tacx Flow. I was wondering if any of you have used it...
