A few feet between them. 2 bikes can fit if done right.

If that red Zero is yours, I saw it yesterday. I'll try parking there tomorrow. I need to contest my ticket from yesterday online soon. Chicago parking is so bad.

[Ramsay Snow]

Just slid in next to you. Haven't gotten a ticket in that spot yet.

Love those spots!

Love those spots!

I'm glad these spots exist. I still get tickets occasionally in them, but I've had luck contesting them when I quote the municipal code in my letter.

[Ramsay Snow]

Luckily Zero does not appear to be a make they have in the ticketing system. I have tickets for Znen and Other glued to my legally parked bike.

[gadgetgirl]

Ha, the one I just got says "Make: UNKN"

Luckily the Macedonian consulate spot has been trouble free so far. If the spirit of Alexander inspires them to conquer those 3 feet it'll be back to Garvey Court or the bike room in the office building.

Yup, left side of Dearborn there is that parking strip between the bike lane and the rest of the road. At the very end of it almost by Washington there is a spot between "No Parking excl Macedonian Consulate" and a "No Parking here to corner" signs. Usually enough for 2 bikes.

I'll check it out. Those two signs aren't on the same pole?

Welcome back to the spot! I got a ticket there a couple of weeks ago though: first one. Obviously contesting it.

It's good to see the Zeroes sticking together. I've used that spot occasionally. It's difficult to get there without someone flailing their arms about cutting through the bus lane, bike path, making right turns on Madison, etc. It is a sweet spot, though. I keep it friendly with the consulate staff that have their SUVs waiting there too.

[Ramsay Snow]

yeah it's a bit of pain to get to, but don't think I've ever seen a consulate car in that spot. Usually just ubers.

How's the SR/F holding up in the "cold"? My SR topped out at 50mph this morning.

I really haven't noticed anything being limited on the SR/F. However, I have only been in heavy traffic on local roads during the downturned temps. I'll see if I can get on the highway a little tomorrow morning and see if anything get throttled.

Stupid snow and ice. I haven't ridden in a week!

Milwaukee area, I feel your pain.
