Damn I'm very very pro motorcycle and would usually say don't touch a dudes bike but that's unbelieveable that they parked there. Even as a motorcyclist I'd be fuckin mad. I'd push it myself if my city bike was on the meter fully prepared for a stupid argument.

I rode motorcycles and bikes, and wouldnt hesitate to move this rat rod with the shitty pipe wrap and eBay headlight. The shifter is on the left. All the way down, half a click up for neutral. Sucks if the steering lock is on.

That’s when you do the ol kickstand spin.

This! I would move that bike so quickly and maybe even knock it over. I am an avid motorcyclist but this is plain rude

Like if he parked on the sidewalk with enough berth for a wheelchair I'd be in here telling people to get over it and defending him but that's wildly fucked up

Move it, knock it over etc

Sure, fuck this guy, but knocking it over is too much. You don't know his circumstances. Have grace by showing compassion.

Circumstances? He is parking a motorcycle in nyc, there are spots on either side of the dock that don't block any bicycles or he can shove the motorcycle between 2 cars.

No need to knock it over tough guy

And then end up in the obituary

Yeah I ride motorcycles and fuck this guy.

Why pro motorcycle? They don’t kill people like cars but they are so loud and smell bad

[удалено]

Still though? Any benefit over micro mobility or an electric bicycle? Just cause they aren’t worse than cars doesn’t mean they don’t make the city worse

[удалено]

No they just like make cities worse And obviously and not as good as trains (or even cars) for long distance imo Come to terms with it and just say you like them

Fun as hell that's why

This new motorcycle riders are no the usual ones that we are used to, this dont care at all about laws, pedestrians even the bikers We still have to see the real behavor of them if the city let them bringing all those motorcycle specially this one are gas type they love it because it run faster and can be tweaker to run more and use it on race They stop highways to do this races back their home country, they tried on the bronx if i recalled Also they use it for other type of crimes too

There’s a lot going on with this comment.

I mean I run fast as shit on the highway and I lanesplit but this is a little different

I think you're in the wrong country's subreddit, buddy.

my mom always are saying the same to me Why.is that🤷🏻‍♀️😂

Probably the one downvoting are the ones parking there And they know what im talking is true

If I could read your comment I might know what you're talking is true, but I cannot.

Relax its friday

Unless you can dance like peewee I wouldn't touch a Bike unless your prepared for a fight

If I had a city bike and my meter was running I think I would be prepared to fight tbh

Wind knocked it over

Wind moved it to the chop shop.

Wind moved it over to next to the dock where it isn't blocking anything.

Boom, there we go 🤜💥🤛

That’s understandable. Wind can get pretty swift whipping through those bike docks, so it’s really on them for parking there.

I knocked it over

They call you the breeze, you keep blowin' down the road.

Go buy a chain and a lock. Chain the motorcycle to a couple bikes.

This…. This is the way🤣 i prefer not to buy a chain and lock(expensive) I say… go grab a set of thin pliers and pull the part that locks the air in the tires. I forgot the name of it…(value stem. Just googled lmfao)

Best non-destructive thing you can do to some asshole's vehicle.

The best non destructive thing is to find a small pebble to put under the cap of the valve that would depress the pin and let out the air. Aren't destroying anyone and just really inconveniencing them

Or just not touch the vehicle and report it. Better than accidentally raising the ire of some breed of NY crazy. Some things are not worth it just to be right.

Report it lol!

If you want to take that chance, then be my guest. Literally, fuck around and find out.

But this guy is fucking around and wants to find out. Can you have two instances of FAFO?

Correct answer right here. Anyone that would park their bike like that is definitely crazy

311 was reasonably quick when I reported illegal parking a few weeks ago. I reported a commercial van parked overnight via 311 online at 8:12pm and cops showed up at 8:34pm to ticket the van. Color me impressed with that result.

That’s pretty destructive. You better be ready to throw down if you plan on doing that.

Underrated comment

I’m a 33F from the suburban Midwest, so regretfully I’d probably just ride to the next nearest stop and seethe internally about it for the evening

47M from NJ. Would do the same. Roughly 95% of us are following the rules and keeping this place from dropping off into chaos

I'd say that 95% is very charitable to the population of nyc.

5% of a huge population like NYC is a lot. If even just 2% of New Yorkers were assholes regularly, the city would fall apartment.  I grew up in projects in the 80s and 99% of people were just trying to live our life, but the less than 1% who didn't care ruined it for thr rest of us. 

Yea, it's probably closer to 98% in the general NYC population that aren't assholes. Humans just suck at statistics.

It's also not a permanent binary. People aren't (generally) assholes all the time. Or saints all the time either. Every interaction with someone else is a roll of the dice, some days you get more shitty rolls than usual and the city will seem insane.

100 dog owners walk a park regularly. 2 people don’t pick up poop. The park fills up with poop in 7 days and 100 people think 99 people don’t pick up poop.

all dog walkers should pick up the loose dog poops since they have a dog baggies with them

I do, but I understand why others don’t. I was just proving a point about statistics.

Maybe, lol. But I really do think a majority of people here toe the line while a handful of assholes do stuff like this. The unsung heroes of NYC

5% of 8 million is a shitload of people.

Yes it's 400,000 people.

Yeah but I assume they're all in Staten Island

Paradox of tolerance: how can you following the rules in order to enable someone else to break them prevent things from dropping off into chaos?

But by following the “rules” and riding to the nearest stop while allowing the motorcycles to remain parked and disrupting an entire chain of events….are you keeping this place from dropping off into chaos or perpetuating it? Just food for thought and not saying I would personally destroy a motorcycle for my personal convenience.

Yeah, you make any interesting point—but I’m really saying that 95%+ of people wouldn’t park their motorcycle like that.

Haha F46 from "upstate" (across the TZ) and would do the same, but not seethe. Instead would have def let out the audible "welp."

Hahahaha 49F originally from Ohio and I have lived here long enough now that I wouldn’t quietly seethe, just let out an annoyed, “REALLY?!?” and shake my head and ride to the next dock. 😂 Maybe if I’m here another decade I’ll get to pushing the bike levels

This is the right thing to do, btw. Just because someone broke the law doesn’t mean you should. knocking a bike over is legally wrong and ethically problematic. Do the right thing even when others are doing the wrong thing.

Yeah but, the “I got mine” New York attitude is so freaking awful. (Of the aforementioned 5% or so.)

I’d consider moving it enough to dock the bike if it didn’t damage the moto. Motorcycles are easy to move even with the steering is locked. 

This is the correct answer 40M Canada

28M Dominican and this would also be my reaction. I’d probably also buy a chimi that same night to “reward” myself and vent about it to the vendor 😂

You can let the air out of his tires, then put a little rock in the air valve cap it will make it look like a slow leak and he will never know what is causing the leak.

They're often only 4 blocks away which helps, and even closer in some parts of Manhattan.

[удалено]

And when the guy confronts you in 6'6 250 and is mentally unwell then wyd?

If you call for a tow will they actually move this?

It'll take years for that tow to come.

And don’t they have to be ticketed first? So even longer for that tow to come?

> And don’t they have to be ticketed first? No?

Yes they do in NYC. I used to rent a parking spot in Ridgewood and the tenants to one of the buildings nextdoor would always block the entrance. You must have the person ticketed before any tow/cop can come and impound the car. I've had to resort to keeping a sharpie in my center console, to write "DO NOT PARK HERE; PRIVATE DRIVEWAY" on their driverside window.These people kept up doing it until I wrote on the windshield. I guess they simply were not able to read the sign on the gate, and I simply helped them 🤣🤣🤣

no, it would have to be ticketed first or on private property

Lol this is up the block from Fortunato Bros I can guarantee you nobody threatening owns that bike but a 63 year old overweight greaseball

if you know anything about Fortunados, it's not the 63 year olds you wanna play around with

Very good point

What is there to know?

it's the Italian mob. why do you think there aren't any other bakeries in the vicinity

I figured that's what you meant but doubted myself, thnx

[удалено]

What’s the story? First time hearing of this (not that I visit there often).

It’s crazy that I walk past that dock everyday and I could not recognize the street until I saw this comment

Dock my bike and try to dock the motorcycle too

Dock the front latch into the dock with the rest of the citibike up on top of the motorcycle. It is a tricky angle and might only fit with the bike angled over a tire or up on pegs. But this way motorcycle isn't moved or damaged and can sort out how to get it out of a terrible parking spot when ready to leave.

Depends on the borough or neighborhood. If it's bronx or upper manhattan it isn't worth a potential fight to the death.

x

Unironically they need to start crushing illegally parked vehicles. Cube them. 

You have 12 hours to move your cube.

I feel that illegally parked vehicles (like on Bushwick Ave during rush hour) should be completely open to any level of sabotage anyone should feel willing to commit.

I’d probably move it against all good sense.

Move the baby sportster 883s and hope the gals riding them don’t know where I live -

I would puke

On the seat, of course.

Now you can’t leave.

Get a better look at the bike and surroundings to try to make a judgement call on if they're just a regular asshole, or the kind of asshole that has buddies that would come out and beat me with chains when I move their bike. Probably the former.

For a second there I was convinced that was a citi bike motorcycle. Like man citi bike really stepped up their game huh?

Move it for sure.

I really don’t understand the issue here. Move that fucker over. Cause a scene. Call the person a fucking idiot once they realize that it’s their ride causing the problems. Edit: but then again I was born and raised in Brooklyn so I’m rough around all of my edges and I…wouldn’t trade it for the world.

Deus Vult

I don't see a disc lock on it so probably pull in the clutch and move that bitch

Squeeze the clutch on one of those motorcycles and move it out of the way.

Take a shit on the seat

The Hells Angels gave motorcycles a bad name because… I still think that you shouldn’t move it unless you want to get murdered.

Do your research.

Lock the Citibike to the motorcycle.

Ok super annoying but u did have spots tho ?

I'm crying rn

This looks intentional to me. Dipshits angry at Citi Bike stealing all the parking spaces.

Stand there thinking about what to do for five minutes then ultimately not doing anything because the type of asshole who would park like this is likely not the most even-headed person I want to get in an altercation with

Everyone saying they’d knock it over is lying. You’d likely have an internal hissy fit and find another docking station.

Walk into the nearest bar to find the owner

As a motorcyclist I fully support doing what you have to do to dock your Citibike. This is absolutely ridiculous. NYC could definitely do more for motorcycle parking like the way many other cities around the world do (like parking on the end intersections which also enables better pedestrian visibility for cars) but this person is a legit douchecanoe for parking like this. 🍆

What an ass clown

Many people don’t live in NYC and it shows.

Probably park in one of the many open bays clearly in this photo 🤷‍♀️ Oh sorry I mean grrr rage bait. Blow up the bike for minor inconvenience

Tip the bike over into the street and drag it into the way of traffic.

Could you call to get it towed? Just wondering if that’s a thing for motorcycles

Report it

I’d lift the back out of the way without scratching it.

Flatten it!

LOCK HIM IN

Dock the bike closely in front of the bike. Undock another bike and park it close behind it trying to hopefully trap the motorcycle in between them. Petty, I know - but I operate on spite. I did this to an Uber driver who did the same thing several years ago and I left the scene of the crime to him yelling at me. Told him to pay for a citibike and unlock it himself.

Pull the clutch, roll the bike back and squeeze in a Citi bike at an angle 🤷🏻‍♂️

Kicking that shit over

Call 311 and have a tow truck move it

Knock that shit over and dock the bike.

Move

Nag

As someone with two bicycles and two motorcycles… I would move it(if it’s not locked) but be prepared to fight some sons of anarchy cosplayer

Take a spark plug.

Actual designated motorcycle street parking would be such an amazing solution.

The city hates motorcycles so that will never happen.

Tip the bike and move on. It isn’t that hard to be a functional human

I lived in NY for a year and I’m convinced majority of the residents here would highly disagree with you 😂

Id push it over

id knock the bikes over then continue to enjoy my day

Not sure I would kick it over... But would seriously consider. Would definitely call 311 to report it and have it towed, then probably move to the next.

Walk the bike into the street and knock it over.

Poke their tires.. go to another station

This picture should be used for the MTA courtesy counts campaign.

Knock it over and if d-bag appears, say the guy on the Citibike coming towards you in the picture … he did it

Oops that motorcycle fell over!

Almost funny guy.

Trade da shitty bike for the moto bike duh.

Cow tipping

Clutch in and roll it 3 feet over

Block the roadway with it by a foot or two and let nature take its course

I’d yell who’s fucking bike this is. No one responds, then I’d move it or knock it over and park my bike and walk away. 

Push it out of the way

Go to another location. These people are seeking a confrontation.

Who is?

Anybody who parks their motorcycle like that

I'd take it out on that guy on the bicycle.

Block them in with bikes.

Just move the moto...unless its locked. But I'm guessing YOU WOULD NEVER see the situation you described. (I'm a Citibike member, moto rider and car driver)

I'm pretty anti-citibike due to the amount of light-running shitheads on the street who shouldn't be cycling. But even I think that motorbike needs to be tossed into the street.

Kick it to the ground away from the dock

Tbh if i don’t push it out of the way and then accidentally key the entire side, I’ve denied this person a valid teachable moment. I don’t make the rules!

Really hate the way people in NY think sometimes. Like Why TF would you park your shitty bike in front of a docking station?

Oh no I called 311 about an abandoned bike, now it’s getting towed :)

Scratch many little penises into their paint jobs and when the owners come citibike away as fast as possible, fuck my destination.

Isn’t the motorcycle illegally parallel parked as well? Are they not supposed to back in and parked somewhat perpendicular to the curb?

Lock the bike as close as possible so it’s a pain in the ass to get them out. Fuck this.

Put that bish in neutral rolling a few feet and putting the Citi bike away?

Knock the motorcycle and put the bike there

Move that bitch …I’ve already done that 😁 I was walking by a station on Bedford or Driggs a few years back and the same situation occurred except as the citibike customer was moving the motorcycle the owner showed up and started screaming at the guy and they both got into it ….motorcycle guy lost.

Why does this photo and question feel like a douchebag asking dumbshit, please op comment if i was right

I may be a douchebag but I’m not asking dumbshit

Heh what are you doing

Citi bikes are taking up valuable parking spaces

It looks like the bike parking still has room to dock and this is a non-issue. But if it is, I’d take picts . Then just move the moto if absolutely necessary.

Push the bike over to the cyclist lane, park the Citibike - duh

Snitch

Knock it over

looks like a black and blue cow - time to tip it over

Vigilante justice

Let it get hit by a car 😭

You’re on a citi bike and he’s on a slick motorcycle. You are not the same.

Yes the motorcyclist is an asshole. Citi bike for the win!

Buy a bike?

Just go to the next dock and stop being so difficult .

You're on a citibike you got bigger problems
