[bikeqld] Hilton owns the footpath too!

[Matt]

 Well, as of 1:05pm today, it became evident that the Hilton Hotel
owns the section of footpath that runs past their dingey dump on
Elizabeth St in the city (Brisbane).
 Someone on a not-inexpensive MTB had chained their bike up to one of
the poles out the front (ie: on the taxpayer side of the property) and
someone has left a nasty note on it: (paraphrasing) "This is not a
bike parking spot. It is a hotel flagpole. DO NOT leave it here again
or it will be cut off and removed!!!"
 I couldn't take a photo as I have a mobile phone that actually makes
phone calls and doesn't do much else.
 Just thought I would throw it out there should anyone want to take
issue with the hotel....  Myself, I wouldn't care and would get an
old bike and a proper krytonite lock and sit across the road watching
them try and remove it >:)
