about 5-6 miles 

 

Similar to mine, maybe a bit less. Let me know how it goes, I'm happy driving at the minute, but if I lose my parking space I'm not happy using public transport. I suspect that distance is a big too far mind, especially in winter.

When they came up with that character, do you think they were aware of what Blart meant over here? 

I always hoped there was a really junior British bloke on the writing staff that suggested it and has been laughing his cock off ever since.

"5 Miles on an Electric Scooter" sounds like a twee novel about fuck all that The Guardian would give 5 stars

Two miles in and i have to swerve quickly to avoid being hit by a HGV. Furious, I almost throw my flat white at the aggressive lorry driver but think of better of it when it dawns on me I would have to retrieve my keep cup from oncoming traffic. Undeterred, I continue, dreaming of my morning kale smoothie

Plus you’d be the biggest bell-end on the Coast Road

they are really no more dangerous than push bikes, so i don't see why that should be the case. there has been one escooter death in the UK to date, i think.

their speed is limited to about 15mph. i have had a go on one and the thing i noticed was how much faster the racer bikes are - the lycra twats fly past you.

Someone riding through traffic in a full suit is like something you’d see on a Japanese hidden camera show.
