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:
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?
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.
Glad you did not find it humping your bike, you could have oil all over your seat
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.
