Have you considered other ways of commuting besides the car and public transport? Sure, both of these options are comfortable and will take you anywhere fast, but what about commuting during rush hours, and all the money you spend on gas, parking lots, tickets and whatnot? Perhaps you’re looking for a more eco-friendly means of transport that will help you move your body and get some fresh air. If this is the case, you should consider a complete scooter.
Even if you haven’t tried riding one before (or only have bike riding experience), there is nothing to worry about. Riving scooters doesn’t require any special skills. You’ll only have to find your balance and hit the road. Complete scooters are a great way to avoid the long queues, save some money on all the things that require care and maintenance and actually move your body after the long hours of sitting behind your desk. Here are some excellent reasons why you should consider one.
Save Money on Gas and Car Upkeep Bills
Once you switch to a scooter, you will realize how much money you were spending on gas, parking lots and other car maintenance-related costs. Investing in a scooter is inconsiderably cheaper than buying and even upkeeping a car. You’ll be able to ride it most of the time, even when the weather is poor, as you can take it with you on public transport. Fortunately, though, the weather in Australia is almost favourable. You can find quality scooters for about $300. Plus, you won’t have to think about insurance policies, gas money and everything else in between that is necessary to keep your car in good shape.
Eco-Friendly Transportation
If you’re aware of how polluted our planet is, you’re probably thinking of ways that can reduce your carbon footprint. Riding a scooter is not only a simpler and cheaper way to go from point A to point B, but it’s also an eco-friendly way to commute. You won’t have to use gas to move the scooter. It only needs your physical strength (if it’s a regular scooter) or just a power charger and an energy source (if it’s an electrical one).
Easy to Ride, Even for Beginners
A complete scooter is perhaps the easiest form of transportation to maneuver. The small wheels allow you to handle slower speeds easily. No matter how old you are, complete scooters don’t require any special experience or knowledge. Anyone can ride them – from young kids to middle-aged people. All you need to do is step on it with one leg, hold the handlebars with both hands and push yourself with the other leg. If you’re a beginner, it’s important to stay focused on the road and hold the handlebar with both hands. With time, you will relax and become more confident in your riding skills.
Road Friendly
Being stuck in traffic and wasting precious time in a long line can be very frustrating when you’re in a hurry. Your small scooter will allow you to easily pass over the huge lines on the street and get you from point A to point B in a much shorter time. There is nothing better than being able to skip the long lines of cars and get just in time for school or work.
Easy Parking
Finding a parking lot can be very frustrating and takes a long time, especially if your work is in the crowded parts of the city. Your scooter is so small that you won’t have to think about finding a parking space. It’s lightweight and easily transportable, allowing you to store it in your office, behind the stairs, in a hallway, etc. And the great thing is that it won’t take too much space and it won’t bother anyone.
Transportable on Public Transport
You were riding around and it started to rain, or you just don’t feel like riding the scooter anymore? No big deal – just hop on public transport with it and continue your commute. If you get tired, you can do the same thing, and it’s also great for the days when you don’t feel like riding for too long and would prefer to carry the scooter instead.
Great for Physical Activity
If your work requires you to sit most of the time, riding a scooter is an ideal way to compensate for the long hours of inactivity. This way you’re moving your entire body, engaging almost every muscle in this activity. Your legs will strengthen up, your back muscles will become stronger and your hands will have to hold on the handlebar firmly, which means they’ll be somewhat engaged as well. If you can’t find time to hit the gym or jog after work, your scooter will be a great way to get some physical activity while commuting from and to work.
