Oh, that's real nice. A good cloud of smoke would have been good too.

What a moron although impressive if he can sleep like that.

Thinking you guys may have never ridden a motorcycle before.

Riding tired is DANGEROUS. Parking at a diesel pump is inconsiderate, but I'd much rather him do that than kill himself riding tired.

I hate people like that. Especially when they see you waiting behind them for the diesel pump and still go inside and take their sweet time.

He can go park in a spot and take a nap.

Of course he could, it's inconsiderate as hell that he put it there. My point is just that sleep is important, and intentionally startling someone who obviously needs a bit of rest could get them killed.

Doesn't matter if I have ridden a motorcycle or not. That has nothing to do with it! Being a jerk and taking a nap at the pumps when there was 50 other spots to park in and nap is what the problem is.

Sleep is important but not there. Sometimes people like that need a good startling to get the point across. He isn't better then anyone else to get the right to sleep there when 50 ft away there is a parking spot to sleep in that would bother no one.

It was just talk, not like anyone did it.

Sleep is important, and a few of us have/do ride. The point here is that you don't do that. It's not just inconsiderate, it's stupid. That's just asking to get hit and crushed. Might as well ride tired if you're gonna sleep there like that.

Yep, that's true. I remember as a truck driver I always tried to park where I was least likely to have my sleep interrupted.
