As my husband (DonH) mentioned i have a Travel Scoot and love it. I don't use it much here because we now own a golf car and that is our favorite mode of transportation. If you are interested in trying it out Carl pm me and we can arrange it. On the latest TS blog a friend of mine posted that the new scoots now have reverse, no belt and the motor is in the rear left tire. We are traveling to NYC in a few weeks and I can't wait to use it there, it will make getting around so much easier.

I never pass unless the cart, bike, walker ahead of me is going 15 MPH or less. I have been passed with carts going closer to 30 than they are 20.

This makes me think that the Travelscoot might be legal on the MMPs. I have met one man in The Villages who had one. Take a look at Gallery - Best Mobility Scooters - The TravelScoot is the lightest and best mobility scooter or electric wheelchair in the world! It folds and unfolds as quick and easy as an umbrella, runs on Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) batteries and has legions of devoted

I'm surprised that I haven't seen more three wheel bicycles here. Due to my spine surgery I've (reluctantly) given up on the idea that I would ever ride a two wheel bike again. I've also taken my last horseback ride. We've all heard it: growing old is not for sissies.

sorry to hear health condition places some restrictions on you. My daughter due to a minimal genetic defect had to give up long distance running, , etc due to lower back surgery She still works out but won't play golf do yoga or pilates any longer. Bummer

I have a friend who use to ride a motorcycle but after a few falls and the realization that age is not kind on the bones went to a scooter. he told me his can reach 85mph. so apparently there are scooters and then there are scooters?
