Not Scooter, with a capital-S, the clipboard-toting Muppet who informed visiting celebrities they were due on the stage in so-many seconds.
Nope, I've been thinking about something like this.
It's a bit of a pipe dream, especially when I put some real thought to it. The upside would be an economical way for me to dart back and forth to work, particularly with shifts that do not necessarily blend well with the family agenda. The downside? Well, this is St. John's, where winter can be indefinite, where it often rains (even just a little on a great, great many days) and where the hills are not something to ignore.
But the thought is there, at the back of the brain, percolating away.
Scooters are great. I love mine.
Hills aren't a problem as long as you get a big enough engine. Cold and rain are not an issue as long as you have the right gear. Avoid the few days where there's still ice and snow in the street and you're fine. Scooters are far more fun to drive than a car!
