The Rise of the Electric Scooter

I have seen a few electric scooters go my my house. I live on a hill leading to the river where a town park is. But what I mostly see are electric bicycles. From my casual observation I’d say it’s probably 4 bike to 1 scooter. But then again, I’m not sitting on my porch all day. Sure are a lot quieter than motorcycles & street legal dirt bikes.

A couple of kids from around the corner have electric skateboards. They use them going up our hill instead of walking up it - 4-1/2 blocks uphill.

Something I’ve recently seen are mini-bikes. After almost 55 years are these are making a come-back? Two kids a few blocks over are riding them down to the river park & boat launch. Just wish they’d stay off the streets with those.
