Etiquette question?

[jlg]

Folks, when you are going to park near other bikes that are 90degrees to the curb, with the Spyder, do you park like the bikes (90 degrees) or parallel to the road? Do you back in like the bikes?

 

[bmccaffrey]

Why
I have reverse

Sucks to be them. They have to paddle :yikes:

 

[Cruzr Joe]

I back in just like the rest of them.

I always back in and park 90 degrees (or at an angle) just like the other bikes. If there are no other bikes around, I"ll park parallel to the curb.

I usually park the Spyder like I would a car - unless I think it's safer to park somewhere else.

We're a lot longer than the typical "leaner". Be careful to not leave your nose out in harm's way...

 

[cuznjohn]

i parallel park

 

[lyonsden]

I usually park the way the rest are parked.

Kind of depends on how much room there is to park. I generally park with protecting my spyder from whatever, but if room is tight I try and park as the other bikes are parked provided my spyder fits.

Back in useally on end (stand out more) & hear how much they like my bike :firstplace::yes::doorag:

[Chupaca]

Depends..!

[Vader]

Simple

As stated by others, I simply back in..rear tire to the curb.

I always back in and park 90 degrees (or at an angle) just like the other bikes. If there are no other bikes around, I"ll park parallel to the curb.

This is also the way I do it.

Typical Spyder, hanging from the ceiling!

 

[Bob Denman]

You park upside down? Wow!!!

That's a technique that they only cover in the "Advanced" riding courses... :bowdown:

 

[ARtraveler]

I usually park like the other vehicles. Nose in.

 

[Bob Denman]

But do you park upside down, and on the ceiling?
