Considerate parking.

Got back to my work car park today to find this

I literally just stood there thinking what??? What's more I have parked there every single day for over 2 weeks with no issues and today come back to this.... Just to make matters worse there was this much room either side of my bike to park

And all of the bikes parked infront of me had disc/wheel locks on so I was unable to move them..... and so ensued a wonderful 50 point turn for me to get out and squeeze down the side of one of the bikes to the left of me. Need to get me some YPLAC cards/stickers.

Re: Considerate parking......

i'd have lifted up the front/rear in turn and slowly walked those bike sideways, or accidentally knocked them over

Rearrange them in a circle so they all block each other in.

Ill see how things go tomorrow. As it was i was a tad worried as I park here every day that they would know it was me.

I would of set them off like dominos.

Actually, no, I wouldn't knock it over.

Tomorrow take your own padlock with you.... They won't get very far with it locked to their disk.

Or if you don't like being too subtle, a nice bright one so that they see it's on there before they ride off ;)

Re: Considerate parking......

Do you not have any mates at work? Get a mate or two to come down and help you park them a little more neatly. Every one parked facing the wall and so tight you couldn't get a fag paper between 'em, much less reach the disk lock.

Actually, looking at the photo you can see that the maroon scooter doesn't have his disk lock on because it's still hanging there. So you could have just rolled that one out of the way.

It isn't right, but they parked like that so they didn't get blocked in like you did.

Common in double depth bike parks.
