Have you been to Sacramento? I rode my bike to school year round, in short sleeves.

I am guessing you are asking this question everywhere you can.. but the answer is, in Sacto, no need to winterize. You will be fine. If you want to set a small heater in the pod set to like 45F.. it won't hurt a thing. But it's not needed. ]]> Fri, 13 Nov 2015 14:01:18 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7216&PID=67802#67802 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7216&PID=67794#67794 Author: killmenow

This is our 1st winter with RPOD. we pay for storing it outside in large parking lot.

We live in Sacramento CA where it can go below freezing.

What should we do to protect it?

Thank You (if I dont thank you, then I probably did not find your response)
