Dan, this is an alternative form of transportation that could free us from gas gougers cars and law breaking dealers. Petroleum consumption is zero, large water supplies and feed would be the main upkeep costs. It is also air ecologically friendly, however frequent surface cleanup maintenance is necessary. The latter could be a problem in a city where pothole repair is sporadic at best.There are some other minor disadvantages; a driver (walker leader) is required. The ride is unusual since in motion the "seat" is going in several different directions at the same time. The vehicle is balky and will bite if given the opportunity. Moreover it seems to suffer from a severe case of halitosis.
Probably the only place one could be kept would be at the Peterson's farm on Cushing Rd.
The hard decision would be to choose from "one hump" vs. a "two hump".
ReplyDeleteAnd I am sure dealers would be enticing us with all the frills that might be out there, leather seat, gold or silver threads... Oh! This would be really something
