Selfish bike parking

i would love to see a video on how that cruiser parked so close and was able to get off...

(Beavis and Butthead moment - "heh heheheh he heheheh - he said "get off"")

But back to your question, quite easy I'm sure. Duckwalk bike into spot, put down kickstand, get off bike on the RIGHT SIDE still holding bike straight up, then after you're standing slowly let the bike lean onto it's kickstand.

I have to do this all the time in my garage because I'm so strapped for space. I can get my bike leaning VERY CLOSE to a concrete wall this way; but it's even tougher on my bike because my kickstand is spring loaded to spring into the "up" position.

Move their bike into the middle of the street, will reconsider parking so close next time.
 
Still not as bad as this D-bag.

Maybe they turned it into a handicapped parking AFTER he parked there? Gotta give people the benefit of the doubt :D
 
I feel sorry for this green bike. Those kind of drivers will reverse and turn it into scrap metal.

Thats what I was thinking. I would never park behind a car, especially behind someone who obviously cant read or just does not pay attention.
 
I had a pic of some ****** that parked in the area reserved beside the handicap spot for them to get in/out of the car just waiting for one of these threads but apparently I deleted it off my phone a couple months ago. Guess he thought he was being thoughtful by not using another spot? Ironically (to me anyway), there is a hashed off spot at the end of the lot that is about 3/4 the size of a normal spot that no one ever parks in except me when I ride that he could've parked in. It would've been slightly more legal, and less in the way.

Now I just have pics of cages parked wrong. Took a whole set in a lot in the spring because 7 of 8 cars in the lot were parked all over the place and not in the spots.
 
Why would the biker on the inside make life harder for himself by parking so close, when the other guy could just stand his bike up and ride away no problem? Even as a gag it would be a failure. It's obvious that in any situation like this, it's the guy who's bike is leaned over top of the other one that was last to park.

There might have been another bike there, for a while, and he slipped in between them. That, or his pirate eyepatch screws with his depth perception.
 
I wonder what insurance would say when you tell them you were being a duche and blocking a car and they backed over you.
If I was to do that I would definitely not go inside whereever it was, I would just watch the person be all ****** off and then go move my bike and tell them they are an idiot.
 
Kudos to the guy on the Ducati who ended up helping me stand up this cruiser so I could slide my bike out.


You're welcome. I work across the street and park on Duncan every morning. The BMW was a lot heavier than I expected..

There's a gent who rides a white/blue/red CBR 125 and parked exactly where you parked. A Mercedes was blocked in between my bike and his... so the owner of the Merc decided to move his bike outside of the allowed parking area (past the post). He got a ticket, but I think our video camera caught the owner moving his bike. I'll try to get a copy of the video and leave the CBR owner a message.. hopefully it will save him a ticket.

On a completely unrelated note, they closed off the parking yesterday to film "Nurse 3D" on Duncan. A movie about "Lust and Revenge". Good times.
