Parking Noobs?

[Magua]

I've noticed an extra scratch or two on my tank after starting uni this semester. :@ Parking noobs indeed.

Leave a note saying

"I pushed your bike to the ground cause your bike was invading my bikes private space and she didn't like it. I think your bike is scared and pissing petrol... sorry about that"

[Folcan]

I have also noticed sometimes my mirrors are all messed up and thats when you know they are parking too close :P

[shingo]

That steetmagic and old yamaha are the worst parkers under the science building. They took up the equivalent space for three bikes (maybe four) and they only really equate to one and a half at the most. Good thing i managed to squeeze in between andrew and the yamaha seen as there was heaps of building material where i usually park.

FUCKin scooters have taken almost all the spots down by music where like only I, a clubman, a Hyosung and the odd fireblade would park... I'm guessing one scooter saw us down there and off they all go now. Feel like playing dominos with them! Grrrr I be pissed off if one day there's no park for me

Was that you who moved my bike forward then blocked me in under science today? I had to drop down onto that courtyard thing then drop the clutch to pop the front wheel up and over the kerb-thing. 18" wheels aren't that big, lol! I would've moved the Hornet, but it looked like it had some sort of alarm flashing on the dash.

EDIT: No, it was a red Hornet 900, not black, and you're done at uni, right? That wasn't very nice, whoever it was.

hey bro that was me and i even texted you about it!!! i apologised for blocking you in and asked you when you finished so that i could come move it if need be!!! i also realised that you were on 021 and offered my 021 number so you could text back in case you didnt have cred to txt back to an 027!!!! i wudda parked better but i had to rush to catch the bus to tamaki!!! i would have just biked there if i knew the route!!! i apologise once again for causing you the inconvenience!!!

there was a stupid lil scorpio taking up 2 parking spaces between stevo's tl and another bike when i got there!!!

Hey, aren't you the guy that used to ride a CBR who then sold out and bought a Beemer, consequently working 70 hours a week to pay it off?

Well I still ride a CBR here and there. Beemer is a commuter to work while the CBR is still the ultimate riding machine especially for trips out of auckland.

That would've been the Bomma's Burgundy Hornet. You're right, that wasn't very nice blocking you in and all that.



Yea what's up with that?

Or maybe you've just given up motorcycling?

Are you on drugs or something? Me giving up riding NEVER!! Don't see you riding your bike nowadays or coming to our trips so does that mean you have given up riding bro?


I dont have problems with parking my bike at work or in the city. haha

[shingo]

i would have just biked there if i knew the route!!!

Was wondering why i hadnt seen the hornet out at tamaki yet. I found a good covered parking spot too down by building 733 for when the weather is lookin a bit dodgy, it should accommodate a couple more bikes.

It goes something like: Mway to ellerslie panmure, left off it, follow EP Hway to big roundabout, go 90 degree left, then left at the set of lights after the ped crossing, then after a cruise past some bike wreckers you're there...

Wises that shit. You can easily beat the bus. Bus goes some nonsense way and joins/leaves the mway at greenlane

yea i paid attention to the route the bus took today....if i had time to wises that shit i wudda had time to find a better park :P was considering moving tom's bike back, pushing my bike in front and putting tom's bike back in behind mine so he could get out but time was against me

i noticed there is another hornet there almost identical but for the dents and scratches down the right hand side

me and dan were having a good laugh at nish till i noticed there wasn't a WWH sticker on the mudguard

Lmao, don't stress. Thanks for the PM lol. I think you've got a different number -- maybe somebody else on the club register going `wtf, I didn't ride today'. As I said in the PM, mostly just ranting because I had a shit day. Having to pop a wheelie to get out of the parking lot can't be such a bad thing, right?

What's the story relating to getting parking back on Albert St? Do we have a chance? Are we still pursuing this option?

[motorbyclist]

i just received an email which either means we can't park on symonds street on the 25th while they remove the car parks to build a bus lane, or that they are removing the majority of symonds street motorcycle parking

as it stands we are about to lose all parking on the engineering side up by the architecture school

This is a sad day for all uni bikers...
