Subject: [CR]Humidity and steel bike storage

I am discovering that the basement in my new house is not as dry as I had hoped. The bikes are all hanging so I am not afraid of direct water contact, but will extended storage in high ambient humidity put the steel bikes in jeopardy? In that vein, how much humidity is too much humidity? I will need to get this taken care of anyway, but in the mean time I was wondering what my exposure was. Anyone else find themselves in a similar situation?
