Oldseadog Posted December 22, 2008 Share #1 Posted December 22, 2008 (edited) We received more snow than normal and I guess you could say this disaster is because of my own stupidity. I saw the snow piling up but did nothing, thinking it was too cold and I would rip the fabric. Well this is the result. I can't get to the bike yet, but some of the pipes are down on it. I'm hoping the damage is not too bad. I guess I will have to wait until the snow melts to lift the shelter off the bike.

A friend of mine bought his from Costco to store his boat in out at Falcon Lake. It collapsed in the snow too wrecking his windshield and just making a huge mess of ripped fabric and bent metal.

Oldseadog Posted December 23, 2008 Author Share #6 Posted December 23, 2008 Don't have a garage, only this shelter. I think I will be building a stronger shelter when everything thaws out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
