Can some one just pick the bike up and re-position it?

Kind of like walking over a guy on the sidewalk.

Well they didn’t say the word “dude”, I put that in. But people keep referring to the sideways bike person as a he.

Calling him a douche was kind of douchey, sorry. You could have accomplished the same purpose with a simple note that said something like, “Can you please park your bike parallel to the other bikes to maximize the rack space? Your fellow riders will thank you.”

Then again, maybe I’ve just had too much experience trying to play nice with my wackjob neighbor.

leaving this person a note isn’t douchy. leaving this person THAT note however, kind of is.

If the note doesn’t work lock your bike to his bike and the rack.

i find your gender-discrimination of all ‘dudes’ being male by default to be offensive.

Why do people assume the person who owns the sideways bike is a dude? Girls can suck at life, too.

But anyway…yeah the best thing is to leave a note, not do some lame shit like let the air out of their tires or put foil on their bike.

And I like how you say “you’re better than that” without knowing them. It’s possible they’re actually worse. Way worse.

Don’t you think wrapping Sideways Bike in foil every day would get the point across more clearly?

Maybe he was the first person to lock up and everyone after him decided to just be contrary.
