Be careful around the diesel pumps.
Here some gas stations have pumps that dispense both diesel and gas using separate nozzles but be aware of spilled diesel on the ground.
The stuff does not evaporate cleanly like gas so it leaves a slick surface by the pump especially if the pad is concrete.
Riding around those pumps watch your wheels especially if the concrete is wet.
Early one morning I stopped to fill up a rental car on the way back to the airport and pulled up to one of those combination pumps, stepped out of the car and promptly slipped on the invisible slick dew dampened concrete. Caught myself with the car door so I didn't quite flop onto my bottom. That stuff is super slick when wet.
