Build it a little shed using something like OSB and roofing felt. Leave
a gap at the bottom to allow air circulation, and fit brackets so you
can hang it off the ground.

Don't bother, sorry, your bike's better off in the rain than in a
plastic bag which will:
1) Delay evaporation so bike is wetter for longer.
2) Drench your shoes, trousers and socks when you remove it whenever it
has rained within the last few hours.
3) Keep your bike warm, so speeding the rusting process.
4) Take ages to put on and remove, negating any time saving from cycling.
Put a shower cap or supermarket plastic bag on the saddle so you don't
get a wet behind, spray bike generously with WD40, accept a bit of rust
or keep your bike indoors.

if it has to be a cover then look to motorcycle ones. £30ish buys you a
cotton-like one that breathes & dries out (keeps it clean & allows a
tiny amount of water thru, had one on my motorbike & it was excellent).
More dosh buys you a breathable membrane type.
*Dont* use a non-breathing cover, e.g. a plastic one - it'll hold damp &
condensation on to your bike.

I have not had one of these abominations for years, but I do recall how
frustrating it was.
Bicycles are now kept in my hall or garage; I'm not an impoverished
student any more, so I have accommdation adequate for my needs.
I once had to keep a bicycle under a tree for a year; it didn't end up
to badly, honestly...

Helen Deborah Vecht twisted the electrons to say:
> 4) Take ages to put on and remove, negating any time saving from cycling.
It takes seconds to get my bike cover off (though it does take somewhat
longer to get it back on I'll grant you). Grab cover at top of seat and
just behind the bottom bracket[1], pull up sharply. Pull hands together
in a semi-circle towards you (so the cover folds roughly in half), and
then stuff the cover between the back wheel of my other bike and the
shead.
Basically it takes longer to unlock my bicycle and put said locks in my
pannier (and then said pannier onto bicycle) than it takes to remove the
cover ...
[1] It's a recumbent, obviously non-darksiders will have to vary their
handholds!

Have you ever actually used a bike as daily transport rather than as

I've been using a plastic bike cover[1] (fiver from Argos) for the last
6 or 7 years while my bike's locked up at work. I /can/ recommend them.
The biggest difference when I first started using one was that the
frequency with which I had to lube my chain during the winter (assuming
no riding other than commuting) dropped from 2-3 times a week to once
every 2-3 weeks.
[1] Well, actually I'm on my third one. First one was replaced after
developing a hole, second one was replaced after someone evidently
mistook it for rubbish while I was on holiday.

You managed to make three last that long? I buy them a little bit
cheaper than that, but treat them as disposable. 6-8 months of daily
use, I reckon! But yes, I recommend them as well. There is plenty of
airflow around the bike as the cover is stretched over the wheels so
needs no strapping down or anything.

Seconded. I think the holes that quickly develop also help with any
condensation problem, and if the holes get too big then I just start
with another

So you'd get nearly as much benefit from a chain cover as a bike cover?

No, because a chain cover would neither keep my seat dry nor stop birds
from crapping on it.

Do they do them that big? I think I'd have a job getting any size of
carrier bag to fit over my seat as easily or as securely as my lovely
