Default Fuel storage

Hi guys,
Bit of a newb question here, but as it is getting real hot here,(100F plus each day) is there any preferred method of keeping your fuels in a cool, dry place.
How long before it goes off and how should I store it between bashes?
Cheers

A closet in your house works good, or a shelf in your basement maybe. I have seen people store their fuel in the Fridge, But I would be too scared my kids would think it was kool aid and take a drink..
Keep your fuel off the ground. how long should it last? it depends on how well you store it and what fuel you use.

Thanks Will, I guess I was worried about the fuel "sweating" and absorbing moisture. I have a huge double garage at my new residence that I have agreed with the wife will be half Monster Truck Workshop and Half Costume storage, My half is going to rock!!! But I do have a beer fridge out there and my kids are too old to drink the Cool Power, they would probably go for the beer!!
Thanks for the reply.

She's a dancer choreographer and teacher, sorry guys ...no poles or tables... javascript:void(AddText(''))
Yeah, I'm hanging to go and buy a air compressor 2moro. Yay...no more blower on a can. The one I'm sussing out has a 50 ltr storage tank and comes with an 8 ltr aux tank that you charge up and take with you. Imagine the envy at the track....Oh I nearly forgot...THERE IS NO OFFROAD NITRO TRACKS IN MY REGION!!! So much for racing!! If you have an egg-beater for an engine you can go racing.
Cheers,

yeah in a closet is good, but don't keep it in your fridge, you get condensation in the fuel and you don't want that
