That's me beside him. I was a little surprised when I saw it, but since there was still room for me I didn't care too much. It's not the only unusual thing about how he left it either.I like his style. This guy's good.
I hope not. I didn't start the thread, but I assumed it was the black one taking up more space than necessary. That's what I thought when I got there. Note the angle of the front wheel as well.Which bike is being whined at? The yellow one?

Like his bike was in an accident on the way to work and the rider no longer had the ability to turn right out of the parking spot.
I would say that technically the yellow one would be more likely to get a ticket in July.
Especially if that post is the parking limit. The regular Green Hornets around there are pretty good, but when they go on vacation, their substitute can be more picky, as they're usually trying to earn a full-time spot.
Don't forget if the black bike parks too close to 90, that box will hang over the sidewalk. If everyone is parked at the same angle say 75 degrees, it doesn't make a huge difference of space between 75 and 90, and it usually makes it easier to get out and rolling. Also, the longer bikes don't stick out into traffic. If you ever park on Mercer Street don't park at 90 degrees. Freight trucks like to park on the opposite side of the road and eat lunch/chill/etc, and taxis use it as a shortcut. What this frequently means is that cars are squeezing between the truck and the bikes with a couple of inches of clearance on either side. A bike that sticks out is going to get hammered.
