i havent got any pictures but when we went to wales last and met up with luckypants we pushed the bikes across some bark and parked them in a picnic area:) best part was it was pay and display and there was no spaces left so we made our own spaces and didnt pay.:)

It must be the thing to do in Wales. I do that a lot too, just normally I don't have the camera. Oh, and the car park has spaces :oops:

Though, in fairness, it's damned hard to park illegally in North Wales. Both Gwynedd & Denbighshire councils don't want you to pay for parking a bike in Pay & Display car parks (I've asked traffic wardens).

Hmm- is that the red one hiding behind the little blue box?! :D

How would the VTR or even a TL1000 be as a step up from the good ole SV? Not that I'm going to be for a while yet, but is definitely on the list...

Sorry to hijack the thread folks- I missed a photo opportunity in the disabled bay outside Waitrose in Weybridge the other week. Was keener to just get out of there. But that's Weybridge for you!

Here's another one. Its from the Isle of Mull, I rode along a footpath then up a wee hill onto these slabs beside a bench. Well worth the view though:p

This does beg the question, that if I can finally pry a Blue Crippo Badge from Northampton Council, how do I leave it securely displayed on the bike?:rolleyes:

Depends if it was to do something unrelated to emergencies. I'm unsure how it stands for say parking under a bridge to change into rain gear, which I have done a few times. Possibly naughty.

Mind you, keep safe, folks the hard shoulder's a dangerous place.

The other plus of this thread is its trawling up a few scenic pics, but mainly truely mediocre pictures :lol:
