Scooter News Motorcycle Network app Finding parking whilst on the run just got easier through the use of a new iphone application.
The Motorcycle Network Finding a two-wheel parking spot just got easier with the
release of the new Motorcycle and Scooter Parking Application for
iPhone.
The Motorcycle Network uses Google Maps to mark over 1000
parking spaces on their website www.mcnetwork.com.au and now
with the release of the new iPhone app, motorcyclists can find bays
and stations across Australia quickly and easily while out and
about, simply by looking up their location on their mobile.
Riders can download the iPhone App at the Apple Store or www.tr.im/motorcycle
Accurate information on timed bays or Clearway restrictions has
been programmed in. Zoom can be set right down street level or
wider to get an overall picture of city areas.
There is also a built-in report function, so that any new spots,
or any spots that have disappeared, can be quickly and easily
reported by the riders out on the road. Precise GPS locations can be
sent with just a few clicks.
Local councils are becoming progressively
more supportive of two-wheeled transport as a cleaner, greener
transport alternative says site creator Jacqui Kennedy
“and now that we have all the existing parking
spots mapped, we can work on expanding the number of
spaces.
Sydney and Newcastle, are utilising otherwise wasted space and
marking it up for two-wheelers which will ease the CBD parking
congestion if motorcycles dont need to occupy a
car space.
Coming Soon: Motorcycle Dealers on
iPhone
Motorcycle Network www.mcnetwork.com.au using
Google Maps, also offers a comprehensive Australia-wide directory
of bike dealers, accessory shops, tyre shops, mechanics and
workshops.
With over 1000 motorcycle and scooter retailers across
Australia, the Dealer iPhone App due to be released in early 2010,
will be particularly useful to those riders venturing out of the
cities and touring around Australia, as they will be able to find
brand dealers, spare parts and emergency help where ever they
are.
