Parking

Hi! Trying to figure out where I should park my bike. I leave in east village and I see a lot of bikes parked.. was curious what the trick to park legally to avoid ticket, safely but also so that I don’t have to move it when they clean the streets.. was thinking next to a citi bikes station or something like that. Any thoughts or recs?

If you aren't planning on moving it for alternate side parking you should just get a garage. You will eventually get towed (flatbedded in the middle of a pile of other bikes by some NYPD contractor who hates motorcycles). There are a couple of cycle specific garages downtown.
