I parked up my bike today and when I went back there was another bike next to it so similar that for a second I thought it was the same model. I think they made friends.
Not related, but this was the first time I've used these stands and it'll be the last. They're so close to the wall that you can't get your bike in close enough to lock up how you'd like. And because the front of my bike is heavy it swings round. No space for it to swing slightly away from me here, so my bike fell over towards me, getting mud on my skirt right before a job interview, and, worst of all, scratching my frame. Cheers idiot designers. And all of the other ones on campus are either painted green and leave green scratches on your frame, or are those stupid ones where you slot your wheel in. Bloody university.
P.S. No, I didn't pick up the fallen bike. Sorry Bike Gods.
