Interesting scooter. I can't think of ANY back country gravel, potholed, washboard, rut filled road I want to even approach 25 mph on a scooter. Could be that experience really is the best teacher... when we survive the quiz. :)

Re: A folding scooter for the pilot in a hurry

Out of all the newer electric powered modes of transport, I still find a ebike offers the most practical way to get around, if one has the room. One of my best examples in this regard, is when I rode my Bafang BBSHD/ Montague conversion from the Johnson Creek strip, up to the old Stebnite mine site, and back. On the way back I ran into Pops Dory and some other pilots that had taken the van, and with only a minute or so head start, I BEAT them back to JC. I think that was a 27 mile ride, and still had a enough juice left to hot rod the last little bit. I'd like to have one of every new e powered device people dream up, they are all fun as hell, but the bike seems to get the job done for me. But I sure would like to try one of these! https://x-offroad.com/super-ride-s1000- ... cycle.html
