Two of us were landing out at Pueblo, CO during a contest. I offered to
land on the taxiway and the tower approved. Since the other glider was
lower, he landed first at the approach end of the taxiway and cleared
off. I overflew him, landed long, rolled into the tie down area, and
placed my wingtip into the hand of the waiting hot-panted young ramp
lady at Flower Aviation. The tower transmitted, "Nicely done, Bravo
Bravo." I knew about the ladies since I often flew the company King Air
there for practice approaches and fueling.

This should start some great story's. I was landing my Ventus at Laughlin/ Bullhead city a few years ago, and lots of small jet traffic coming in for a conference was making it tough for the tower to sequence me in, (they were worried about me clearing after landing). So they asked if I could land on the taxi way and they would get somebody down to help me move up onto the ramp. To which I asked how wide between the lights it was. When they told me it was 60' I said no problem and proceeded onto final parallel with a citation landing! I managed not only to land but made the 90 degree turn up a hill onto the ramp and within a wingspan of a tiesown spot! I swear I could hear the controllers clapping
