I got my first parking ticket on my bicycle today! I was mad for a moment, then I thought it was funny. The great thing about my new job is that over and over again, they've shown me how reasonable and responsive they are. So now I'm confident that when I explain "I can't use the provided bike racks because there aren't actually bike racks provided on this side of the complex", that they'll put in some bike racks.

I never lock up to a rail or signpost, if a bike rack is available reasonably close.

Now if I could only get a speeding ticket on my bike...
