 #23: Safe scooter parking in Germany

It's a well known fact that Germans put their two-wheelers on the roof of their house, where the bikes will be safe from prowling cars, wild hogs, crotch rockets and other predators. 

You don't believe it? Well, look at this one... it is a common habit to protect your two-wheeler that way. Seriously!

  4. That would make a great launching pad, but I suspect the landing would be severe.

    1. I am pretty sure it involves some German engineering to get it off the pad...
