We had a couple three scooters at work, which people would borrow to go up to the local shops. It halved the journey time - useful if you had a lot on and only wanted a sandwich - of course the alternative was to wait for me to go, and then make outrageous requests which took up most of my lunch break!

The weight limit on those was 100kg I think. Nearly 16 stone for Brits, 220lbs for Merkins. Note chap in picture looks pretty lithe. Why is he using a scooter? He can run!

Love the idea. Sadly, wouldn't work here.
1) We're too fat
2) We're too destructive
3) They would probably get blown up now the IRA are active again
