    Angry Yeah joke... Parking in hashes.

    Ok quick question, who DOESN'T park in hashes? Motorcycles come with rockstar parking benefits. I'm just curious...

    If someone were to put their hands on MY bike and try to stuff a ticket in there, I'm just saying I'd be mad. But of course this hasn't happened...

    i do park in hash and all over where ever i want, one thing to remember is if its in a parking lot cops "cant" ticket you because its private prop. one way they can is if its a marked "no parking" or "Fire lane"

    Well, for this particular individual, there were no posted signs in a parking lot. If this were to happen, it would probably blow off of the bike and be lost forever anyway.

    That's retarded, cops need to find a life or real things to occupy their time with. You park in hashes then people bitch but you also take a full spot and then they bitch too... I had that problem constantly at my old place and some of the King Soopers but never a ticket.

    Carson had motorcycle spots and they never ticketed for this. It's because we have fucking rent-a-cops instead of MP's. And MP's have lost their way if they were to do it; I fucking work hard for a living... I park in hashes because they DO bitch about taking fulls.

    I don't, just because they are generally for the extra area to accomodate people with special needs. Vehicles with wheelchair ramps, etc...

    Generally.

    Re: Yeah joke... Parking in hashes.

    Thats pretty lame but i have noticed over the years some riders seem to park however they want. Got into it with a rider that left his pile right in the middle of wheelchair ramp. Not at the bottom. Not at the top. Not to the left or right. Right in the middle. I think its assholes like that that make trouble for others.

    Re: Yeah joke... Parking in hashes.

    I dont park in those. The ones on the end not next to the handicap spots. I can see the sense in those cases. And, there's something wrong about touching somebody else's bike.

    Oh and btw not ALL parking lots are privately owned. If the city owns it they can ticket it.

    I once parked at the bicycle thing. I was having issues with a parking lot so i parked it like a bicycle. Even chained the front. Lol. That ended all that. Parking for bikes sucks sometimes.

    Re: Yeah joke... Parking in hashes.

    At the Parker Walmart I always park by the bicycle rack. I stay far enough away to not interfere with the bikes and have never had an issue (not that I am a Walmart regular) I will park in triangle shaped hashes at the end of a row but never next to a handicapped spot.

    Re: Yeah joke... Parking in hashes.

    I take up a full because otherwise chances are good your bike is gonna get hit, some douche will kick it over, or you'll get ticketed. I just park at the outer edge of the spot so nobody can fly in and hit my bike saying they didn't see it.

    That said, if anyone goes to UCCS, good luck with the bike parking there, it's a joke! Some lots you can park in the hashes, some you can't, and there's one corner of one floor of the parking garage you can park in. And even though you have a full permit you've paid for, you'd better not park in a full spot.

    The individual said the court date was not listed on the ticket, nor was their a plate number, and will wait to see if a date comes in the mail (even though he doesn't live at the registered address and has a license in another state). Fuck you cop. That's what he said...

    Re: Yeah joke... Parking in hashes.

    I work out at Schriever, and they highly frown upon parking in hashes out here. I got a verbal warning from a couple security forces peeps when I did it this summer. They have motorcycle parking spaces here, full-sized spaces too, BUT they let cars park in them, even though they're "reserved" for motorcyclists.... It's all BS though, really. If I go to the supermarket or WalMart or something like that, I park on the sidewalk next to the building. There's always tons of space, I never get hassled, and when I leave I feel like I'm in one of those action movies where they ride on the sidewalk to shake the Fuzz!! hahaha WIN/WIN

    Re: Yeah joke... Parking in hashes.

    IIRC, you risk a fire truck or ambulance clipping your bike in many hashed locations. If they need to make the turn, I bet they will not think twice about trashing your illegally parked vehicle. YMMV.

    Hey now Mr Army Man ;-)

    Depending on how insistent the issuing agency is on collection, you may or may not get away with it. At my old college, we ignored you until your 5th ticket. At that time we put a boot on your car, ID'ed you, then collected. However a local Police Department I know of puts a warrant out on the first ticket.

    No joke there! Of course, the only time I took a full spot in the parking garage is on the paid parking floor when I didn't have a pass. Parking on level 2 can be a pain, but level 4 is usually wide open. One time a UCCS rent-a-cop gave my bike a ticket because he was too lazy to check my front forks for the pass. Wasted his time writing the ticket, and my time taking a picture and explaining to the parking office that I did have a pass.

    This all boils down to, what ever happened to treating people like people? How you want to be treated... I won't go any further, but that's the damn truth.
