you have really good points here. i've never ridden a scooter and it really might not be possible to "ride it like a bicycle". while i spend maybe 98% plus of my time riding on the road, it's not as if i'm never on the sidewalk or someone's lawn. my concept might not be as valid as i think here
i have mixed feelings on the danger element. on the one hand, obviously, no one wants to get hurt badly, but, on the other, i find us too much living our lives in fear and don't think it's a good thing i dislike any involvement with the government as i feel them to be a destructive force who cares about nothing but themselves. i own an outboard motor, but don't use it on my dinghy boat as that would require, by law at least, the i register my crappy PVC vinyl blow up boat the same as i'd have to register a car. a more normal person might say "just give them the 50 bucks a year and use the motor instead the only dope rowing in the intercoastal" but i just keep rowing i'm not getting clarity on what to do here but it won't be the first thing this has happened with On Sat, Oct 5, 2013 at 8:13 PM, Curt Raymond <curtlud...@yahoo.com> wrote: > Dimitri thinks like a doctor and you've forgetten that anything motorized > must be ridden in the street while bicycles can get away with a lot more. > > Put more simply I tend to believe that anything worth doing is probably > dangerous and if you're considering a moped or scooter you should look for > a 150cc motorcycle.
