    Well, in that case they would slap one of those yellow stickers on it. Haven't yet, so I don't think so.

    Cool

    All these places are FREE for motorbike/scooter to park.

    Aotea Square carpark - 2 area's allocated to 'Bikes ONLY'.
    Sky City carpark - near prepay exit up on the islands to the left.
    Auckland City Library - heaps of spaces marked 'Bikes ONLY'
    Auckland Uni - near the theatre entrance marked 'Bikes ONLY'

    Footpath - but near the roadside so as to NOT obstruct pedestrians walking.


    Do NOT knock the arm barriers going in and out of Sky City and Aotea Square and you wont be given a hard time.


    Never ever park in a 'Disabled' carpark - they are allocated to people with disablities for a reason. If you do park in a disabled carpark, then do expect some abuse.

    But in West Auckland shopping areas - DONT park on the footpath as the traffic wardens will issue you with a ticket. Yet it is ok in Auckland City.

    Well, I just did my bit as parking Nazi this arvo. Went up to the local Red Shed (parked on the entrance way), and watched while two women in a people mover thing drove into the Disabled space next to where I was parked, jumped out , and strolled into the Shed.

    Checked the vehicle, no "Disabled" sticker (was plastered with 'Come to God' messages, but. ): so I dobbed them in to the Warehouse security guard.

    Who really did NOT want to know but finally said he'd do something about it. Doubt he did though. Dunno if there is anything else one can do.

    One of the few motoring things I really dsiapprove of that. Not even like it was one of those where they have a row of 20 or so of them , and they're all empty. The one they parked in was the only one.

    If you google "auckland city motorcycle parking" it'll tell you all the spots. The Victoria carpark also has some free mbike parking - parked there this morning. Dunno how secure it is though - there were notices up for some goes Moto Guzzi that was stolen from there in March. I notice most of the bikes/scooters had locks on.
    ... and that's what I think.

    Or summat.


    Or maybe not...

    Dunno really....

    Going to??? I already AM!!

    Digsaw mate, they are getting a good rise out of you. Chill.

    I don't park in disabled parks, but i virtually park anywhere that i may be able to get away without a ticket. Haven't had one yet!!

    Also somewhere with good foot traffic so that it isn't easily carted off or vandalised.

    A dude at Auck uni had his mint new sports bike picked up and chucked down a hill by some punks...so i heard.
