Or can use use a bike. I myself find scooters to be death traps. I am wayyy more comfortable on a bike! Plus I tend to go thru bikes pretty fast. Seems I have to buy a new one every 3 seasons. Dont really want to spend a bunch on a scooter, or expensive bike, only to get trashed. (My current bike is missing the chain and back brake, front brake is bout done with, about 1/4 the seat is missing, both reflectors, and half the pedal on the left side.) Need to find that happy medium between afordable and good quality. Dont want something thats too expensive, or something thats the worst quality bike. My price range is usally around $125-$150.
But really, its what you're most comfortable. If you fall over every time you get on a bike, Dont use it!
