Wishlist Wednesday UPDATE: Scoot Scootin' Boogie: I got my grown up scooter!
Hey, remember back in December when I put a scooter on my Wishlist Wednesday List??
Well, I got a grown up scooter for Christmas! It’s not quite the one I had on my list, but it’s close enough and I LOVE IT.
It’s got a 220 pound weight limit, which is more than enough for my tall, overweight frame.
It’s very easy to open and close.
It’s got a carrying strap, which is pretty nice.
It has the traditional back wheel brake, which has come in handy more than once... and it's a learning curve to use it too.
It folds down to almost nothing, so it’s easy to put in the car and take with the boy’s bikes.
The larger wheels make for a much smoother ride.
The handlebars are adjustable. I have them up the highest they will go and it works for me. (I’m 5’10”)
Whew, it’s a good workout too! My hamstring was definitely feeling it the next day. My quads and glutes were feeling it a little bit too.
BUT IT IS SO MUCH FUN! Wheeee!
My goal is for Froot Loop and me to get good enough on these scooters to scoot to and from school. Walking is fun and all, but riding on a scooter is COOL, man!
What’s your ride? How do you get to and from school/work/etc?
