Get out quicker on a micro scooter?

[Decaff]

I've noticed that there are a lot more adults using those micro scooters to and from the train station lately, after a bit of researching I've seen them on Decathlon site and Hakfords for under £70 and there are cheaper or more expensive styles out there, some eveb have battery power!! A big plus is that you can get ones that fold in half and can either be pulled along as a trolley or you can get a bag for them to sling over your shoulder. Good reviews on a few of them and I thought in an emergency you could scoot away quicker than you could run... Stashed in a car boot in case you needed to abandon the car... Does anyone have one of these and are they as good as they look?

I have to warn you, in a world without rule of law, adults on micro-scooters will be the first to the wall. If you're over 12, you shouldn't be on one

A goped would be a quicker thing, not sure what the battery range of the electric one's is but gopeds are 2 strokes so you just need petrol and a little oil for a refuel on the go.

I have one in my boot in case of car trouble, major traffic jams or road closures. I think it would take a lot for me to use it, but it's there!

Under normal circumstances I would agree with you both, and as I say it would take a lot for me to use it (the shame!)

It belonged to me when I was but a young 'un, but on a recent visit to my parents house I found that they were throwing it out and I couldn't let it go to waste! After a quick scoot round the garden my mind was made up, it's lived in my boot ever since . You lot may laugh now, but I reckon I'll be the one laughing when I'm zooming down the hard shoulder, with the wind in my hair, powered by only one foot

Really??? Where is the sense of fun??!! I would not be embarrassed to whiz along on one of these at all. Looks like its just you and me then Arzosah
