No. No, I don't. :icon_confused:
I live in a condo in a... Uh... "Not the nicest" part of town.
I
could work on it in my shared garage, but I'd have to pack up all my tools and whatnot every time I wanted to use the bathroom, have a snack, or get a drink... There's no way I'm letting my tools walk off without me.
And since someone tried to steal my GS once already and 7 cars have been broken into since I moved in (2 months ago)... I'm not gonna chance it. :cry:
ohhhh i'd be looking for a new place :)

I'm guessing its not a big condo, or you could do like one of my buddies here, he's in a 14 story condo and can get his bike into the elevator from the parking garage and luckily he's in the middle so its straight into his unit from the elevator.
