Guest Posted July 3, 2020 Posted July 3, 2020 Wife wanted to go to the shops in Baza, so I swerved the shopping bit by nipping into Juan Cortes to get an oil filter!Anything other than face the trauma of shopping with a woman! They asked me if I wanted to test ride their demo electric scooter that was out the front.I passed on that one! Quote
Guest Richzx6r Posted July 3, 2020 Posted July 3, 2020 You didn't fancy being a jetson for a short time then? Quote
Guest Posted July 3, 2020 Posted July 3, 2020 Really you passed up a free lecy ride. I can't be the King of Cool on a POS like that Bender! Quote
Six30 Posted July 3, 2020 Posted July 3, 2020 Really you passed up a free lecy ride. I can't be the King of Cool on a POS like that Bender! you made the right choice... you should of kicked it over and ran off. Quote
S-Westerly Posted July 3, 2020 Posted July 3, 2020 I dunno, as you are getting even older by the day the time may come when a wee step through scooter is all you can manage Quote
Guest Posted July 3, 2020 Posted July 3, 2020 I dunno, as you are getting even older by the day the time may come when a wee step through scooter is all you can manage You never know......I could end up going full circle and ending up back on Scooters.Odds are probably against it in my case though......I don't have hip problems, no arthritis (doesn't exist in my family), and I'm probably more flexible than guys half my age.The only injuries (sport related) that I carry are my knees......but they've been like that for 30 years. So no reason to think they'll give up entirely after all this time. Quote
Bender Posted July 3, 2020 Posted July 3, 2020 It's the future, embrace it, think that will spoil your style, just want till its got mobility in front of it. Quote
JackieOWheels Posted July 3, 2020 Posted July 3, 2020 What range would you get on that wee scooter? Imagine getting caught out whilst you are riding about on it and needing to wheel it back to the store. I'm kinda interested as I would love to try one. Quote
S-Westerly Posted July 3, 2020 Posted July 3, 2020 It's the future, embrace it, think that will spoil your style, just want till its got mobility in front of it. My Dad got a mobility scooter on Monday. When he first told me he missed out the word "mobility " and visions of him on a vespa or similar went through my head. Sadly it all became clear when he talked about keeping it in his bedroom. Still he's 90 next month and has been house bound for 3 months thanks to covid and he couldn't stand being stuck in the wee flat with my mother and no escape any longer so there you go. Quote

You forgot the obvious signs of being slightly* mad then due to high speed vibrations in a hot climate.*Or possibly more than slightly. Quote
