While it may be technically illegal (is it?) to lock your bike to sign posts like these, until the city installs more bike racks around town it’s just a fact of life that these are going to be used instead. Frankly we can’t understand why a homeowner would care if a bike was locked to a curbside sign post (as opposed to a front gate or something else actually on his property), but it looks like someone on Grand Avenue in Clinton Hill has taken matters into his own hands, which begs the question of whether it’s legal to attach non-DOT-sanctioned signage to these poles. If it is, there should at least be some requirement for the signs making grammatical sense. Or maybe this is some absurdist statement of the obvious rather than a warning not to do something.

I agree that there’s probably more to the story. As a business owner in the Cobble Hill area – we face an uphill battle trying to load up our vehicles when bicyclists lock up restricting access from the sidewalk. While I understand his frustration toward this type of thing, it’s not something I lose sleep over. This is obviously a very frustrated, type-A mentality. I’m thankful he/ she is not my neighbor!
