Parking

Went to the gym this morning park up as normal and being the only one there I got the choice spot. Come to find some wosit had parked almost right into my bike. So much so, that I had to mount the bike from the right.

What’s more that is plenty of space, cannot figure out why he did it.:unsure:

Silly sod!:angry:

What an odd thing to do.

Maybe his bike liked the look of your bike’s rear. :wink:

It is a nice bike though, but yes, they cannot park at all. Silly buggers.

There is a CBR rider at work who always parks facing the wall whilst everyone else faces away in a similar way to that photo. He arrives late so have never seen him, but have often had to climb over the right of my bike to get out. I can only assume that he can’t be bothered to back into a space and so hogs more real estate then necessary and inconveniences everyone else.

The other CBT rider at work is equally inconsiderate. He leaves his bike taking up a precious space for months at a time. A weekend once in a blue moon the bike moves. The only times I have seen the rider he is trying to start with a dead battery or is changing the battery. He is inconsiderate enough to stack up his dead batteries by his bike.

The Trumpet looks like it’s physically attracted to your bike - like in the Herbie film when the Volkswagen Beatle fell in love with the Lamborghini. . .

That is quite surreal behaviour! why doesn’t he just bring the battery inside his flat/house when he’s not using his bike and stick it on trickle charge?

Why doesn’t he just ride the bloody bike?

I arrived later than the other bikes at work today, so the only space left for me was right in a puddle. I managed to put it so the front wheel was in the puddle, but so that hopefully everyone could get out of the bike park ok as there is a taped off temporary area.

There’s not a lot of space and my scoot is quite big, I’ll admit that, but I try to park sensitively and always on the centre stand. There is a Dakar BMW trailie at work that leans miles over when on the side stand (does it even have a centre) which is annoying as for a slim bike, it sure takes up a lot of space when leant over!

Quite random! It looks like his trumpet is sniffing the back of the bike like when dogs meet. :smiley:
Glad you did not find it humping your bike, you could have oil all over your seat :stuck_out_tongue:

See, thats why I dont go to the gym :smiley:

Ha! Exactly what I thought! :smiley:

*The dogs, they held a party,
They came from near and far,
Some came by motorbike,
And some by motor-car.

When they reached the party,
Instructions they all took,
To each take off their bottoms,
And hang them on a hook.

One dog was not invited,
It sorely raised his ire.
So he ran in to the party room
And bellowed, loudly: “FIRE!”

So up they jumped in panic,
They had no time to look –
They grabbed the nearest bottom,
From off the nearest hook.

And that is why today,
Dogs leave their juicy bones,
To sniff another’s bottom,
To try to find their own.*

you ought to try living in italy - that kinda thing is standard practice out there - only if someone needs a space, theyll just pick the bike up and move it!!!

I was just about to have a rant about the same thing!

It seems as if people have started parking diagonaly in every bay I go to… What’s the story? Trying to get our £1.50s worth in Westminister are we? Just cause you’ve paid to park, doesn’t mean you should take up more space than you need - it’s hard enough trying to find one in Central London as it is!

Anyway… I feel better now… it’s just that it was chucking it down, so having to walk extra mileage from a further bay was not what I wanted to do.
