bicycles are too large to park?

Mr Thompson hadn’t parked up his bicycle and gone in to pay because it
had a trailer on the back for his son which would obstruct traffic. The
mind boggles at the size it must be!

Maybe they were all consulted, but what we are not told if these

They probably just wanted to discourage cyclists in general, knowing what a
pain in the arse they normally are.

What, for example, does the Highway Code say about me parking my car in your
living room? Doesn't say I can't, right?

Perhaps you should check out the land registry and see if a McDonalds
drive-thru is part of the Public Highway or whether perhaps McDonalds own it
and reserve the right to tell idiots to **** off.
