I don’t know how people live without basements, where do you put all your sh*t? It’s amazing having another entire floor. Also, it provides a perfect pain cave that tends to be just a bit cooler than the rest of the house no matter the season. I train underground man! I don’t understand you surface dwellers…

I have the essentials. Hope to finish the basement some day but this will do for now. Laptop swaps between the trainer and treadmill.

It’s not much but it gets the job done… I use an old dumb trainer, in my shed that’s quite cluttered, no fan yet… Using my fiancée’s bike as it’s too much faff to continually swap the bike onto the trainer and off

I think we need some interventions, via “Pimp my Paincave”, or “Cycling Horders”… not sure which is more important :stuck_out_tongue:

In fairness most of the stuff in the shed belongs to my landlord

Regardless, I would feel the uncontrollable need to sort, organize, and stack that tornado of junk into something far more sightly and less risky of tripping, etc.

That mess is crazy. I know that doesn’t bother everyone, but it would haunt my dreams.

I didn’t want to post it, but it triggers me somewhat as well. I’m not fastidiously neat but need a certain sense or order.
