I want to ride my bicycle


I was thinking of getting a bike until I looked into the logistics of it. It's kind of illegal to park your bike on the footpath, although you wouldn't think that from simple observation. Some places go to extremes to prevent people from parking their bikes in front of their stores, like the above monstrosity found in front of Starbucks. It looks much worse than a couple of bikes ever would.

I saw a guy pull up in front of a security guard at Roppongi Hills once, and proceed to chain his bike to the roadside rail. The guard came over to tell him he couldn't park there and the guy just told him to sod off and walked inside.
