City of London, code 62, Parked with one or more wheels on or
over a footpath, Finsbury Circus

Hi all and good morning. Yesterday evening, around 6pm, my
motorcycle broke down in the City of London due to what I
suspect is a dead battery. I pushed it about one or two streets
down to the nearest motorcycle bay where a police officer
stopped me, ran my registration, asked for my license etc to
make sure I wasn’t nicking it, then told me it was a theft
hotspot at night so I got a bit nervous and decided to use my D
locks to anchor to a signpost as none of the three nearby
motorcycle parking spaces had anchors.
This required me to park my motorcycle on the pavement, but I
thought eh, better get a PCN than my bike nicked. Low and
behold, I come to pick it up around 9AM today, and I have not
one, but TWO PCNs on my motorcycle.
I would greatly appreciate any advice on how I can appeal both
PCNs, I already plan to appeal the second on the grounds of it
being a continuous contravention.
Both PCNs BB linked below (apologies for not using Imgur, blame
OSA not me…)

The second PCN is a continuous contravention so you should get
that cancelled.
You can try the police advice and the breakdown but I expect
they'll not cancel the first one.

Out of interest, why not just bump start it?

battery was completely dead so could not be jump started. bike
broke down mid ride so i mean if power was going to the battery
it wouldn’t have happened in the first place. but all recovered
and replaced battery now and problem fixed now!

IMO, your arguments go to mitigation only and are not a
statutory defence. Therefore don't take this beyond the NTO
stage if the discount is re-offered unless a NOR brings forward
material procedural improprieties.

As I said the second PCN is a nailed on continuous contravention
given just a few hours later.
