I always park my bicycle on parking spaces now. Because:
a) It’s legal in Germany. Even on parking spaces that cost money for cars or are time limited, you can put your bike for free, for as long as you wish. Because those restrictions apply to parking, and parking is something only cars do. (Exception: Private spaces)
b) I’d rather take away space from cars than from pedestrians.
I invested 10€ in a loud-as-fuck alarm from Alibaba that activates when the bike moves, so far it’s had a 100% success rate of discouraging cagers from trying to carry my bike somewhere else.
I find myself park mine close to buildings when picking up takeaway and similar if there’s no nearby bollards or racks nearby, but at the same time I feel like I’m probably impeding in some way for blind, wheelchairs etc.
I'm so mad at people who don't properly park their rented scooters. I always take my time to put them aside if they're a hindrance on the sidewalk but it infuriates me how it just takes TWO seconds to not be an asshole and people still don't bother.
Chrono Trigger is that awesome game that I never played back in the day… Until now, I started it like a month ago (the DS version) and I’m liking it so far.
