Kool Parking.

Went to a company in east london and saw this


I thought it was just on display as a few building management companys r bike nuts and display mainly custom jobs.  66 knighsbridge being one.
This chap parks his bike here every day at werk.

I had a mate who lived in Hackney and parked his bike in the back kitchen after riding it though the front door and down the hall

It wouldn't be fun if it was easy, I just wish it wasn't this much fun.

 :eek Looking at the picture, there is a pedal cycle beside the next desk, I wonder if it was there first and the motorcycle owner asked if he could take his bike into the office for safe keeping, and of coarse omitting the motor bit. :lol :rollin :lol

I used to live on the 9th floor on the Trowbridge estate in Hackney and I never left my bike downstairs. I'd take it up in the lift and on the odd occasion if the lift was out of order I'd ride it up the stairs.

If I left it on the ground floor it would'nt be there in the morning.

I suppose London parking comes at a premium and I'm sure no one would want to leave a Desmo outside so parking nxt to your desk is the deal maker when thinking about moving jobs ! But they must have very relaxed health and safety policy try explaining that to the building insurance co, oh the office burned down and my bike was nxt to my desk full of fuel at the time.

There's a Donky and they are'nt cheap at £400 for a cargo transporter that needs a strong pair of legs.

Clean tyres, clean floor and paddock stand looks like winter storage to me, what a poof, who wouldn't ride a Desmo through a UK winter, it would just eat up all that salt and grit on the roads  :lol
