Still not giving in.

3 Replies

I am at this present time in the UK....trying to purchase a kick scooter.

I have tried one in my local park and there are plenty of benches to get your breath back on.

I don't smoke and rarely drink alcohol.

So their is nothing to sap my strength apart from lungs.

To me having been into extreme sports.

Now it is a low level adventure but extreme for me!!!

I don't moan very much and really did enjoy the fum aspect of it!!!

There is a bench every few metres. Which I do use abnd very greatful for.

Lots of breathing techniques and stops.

I live in Sheffield built on seven hills , so I can only use the flatish park only been around the easy bit so far..

Has anyone got a 26 inch wheeled scooter that they do t use anymore.

Yours forever adventuring

what is a kick scooter ? like a childs? I went to heligoand a few years ago where there is only electric traffic allowed.

it is a very small island with one town and lots of seabirds around on the cliffs which are completely oblivious to people and worth visiting just for that .

Many people in the town had adult size scooters I didn't look at them closely to see if they had any means of propulsion but it seemed a good idea. is that what you want ?,. I have never seen those in this country.

Thank you for your reply. What I am thinking of is a 26" wheel at the front and a 20" at the back. So from the front if you were facing a kick scooter it looks like a bike with no pedals apart from the handle bars, they are very narrow.The bigger wheel not only allows grater distance from the kick but also the 26" wheel gives you more directional stability.

I was just putting it out there really.

Don't worry though. I am still saving in a kind of budgeting sort of way.

I hope I am not doing something wrong on this website.

It's just a long term ambition of mine.

Doing it all be it slowly , whilst I can.

Size the nettle.

(If you seize that nettle it won't hurt as much as tickling it)

Oh yeah I don't care who laughs at me

It's for me!!!

Why not.?
