My daytrip to Stuttgart over the weekend had me once again napping in carparks and I thought we could share tips for the optimum napping technique.
Having recognised the signs of "time for a nap" on some dark motorway somewhere in the wasteland in the early hours of Saturday morning I pulled into a rest area full of sleeping lorries but completely devoid of other amenities, switched the bike off, leaned over the tank bag and went to sleep. Shortly afterwards I woke up with a start fearing that I was rolling over in bed and about to take the bike with me.
I got off the bike, removed my helmet (it cost a fortune and I don't want it scratched), pulled my [IBAUK winter] buff over my head, lay on the tarmac next to the bike and went to sleep. 20 minutes later I woke up refreshed, walked round for five minutes then resumed my journey eastwards.
What do you do?
