Hi

Anyone else here indulging in this growing trend? Would love to start a discussion that’s not a Facebook group.

I have both. And will love to chat with other enthusiasts

Plenty on footpaths and now roads. Soon they will be on highway or freeway. Unlicensed and a hazard to pedestrians, vehicles and themselves. Accidents waiting to happen but they will claim it is their right to do what they like because of freedom.
I for one don’t ride like a retard. Very slow where people or cars might pull out of driveways

They need to make up their mind if they want to be on the road, footpath, DUP and PSP, any of those would be acceptable, but not on paving or pedestrian walkways outside of shops and buildings. They are so quiet, you don't hear them coming past you from behind. A hazard to oldies, kids, pregnant women and those pushing a pram or walking frame.

I’m sorry you feel that way. But I am not going to insult you back.

Was just saying that if I need to be on a foot path I ride very slow so I don’t distress pedestrians. And be very mindful of vehicles and people coming out of their drive ways to keep them and myself safe.

I ride that one off road. I have a normal bike and an e scooter I use for commuting. I don't need cops speaking to me
