-0600<br>><br>>The Longmont city code says parking is prohibited ON a
sidewalk or<br>>crosswalk, within an intersection, and within five feet
of a driveway. I<br>>don't see any restrictions against parking right in
front of a trailhead<br>>where there's a curb cut such as in these photos
I took last
week:<br>><br>>http://www.flickr.com/photos/bike/tags/access<br>><br>>One
would hope common courtesy would prevail, but not here. About once
a<br>>month cars are lined up along the street blocking access to this
trail. I<br>>set off the Camaro's car alarm and waited for the owner to
come out, but<br>>nobody showed up.<br>><br>>Is there any law
prohibiting this kind of
parking?<br>><br>>RFM<br>>_______________________________________________<br>>Bike

It could be considered an intersection, as the trail does intersect the
road. Call the nice folks at the Longmont police department and ask them.
