I can kick up various slopes, but there's a point where walking is more efficient.<br /><br />As for the not-so-great sidewalk, I'm pretty good at picking a line with the Kickped. It's much easier on my new SwiftyOne, which has bigger wheels and a bit better ground clearance.Kent Petersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01607372827627527450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18676999.post-81049923258783936752014-11-25T00:15:38.710-08:002014-11-25T00:15:38.710-08:00Do you scoot up Fremont Ave to the zoo?

That used to be on my commute; I saw people on skateboards going both directions, and I even saw someone on a freewheel BMX with no brakes descend it (he jammed his shoes against the road and back tire (!) to stop), but never a scooter.Al Dimondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05356410883740760010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18676999.post-31472539170172943662014-11-12T18:43:58.951-08:002014-11-12T18:43:58.951-08:00Kent - I think multi-modal transport might be the ...Kent - I think multi-modal transport might be the best of all worlds! I use car, brompton and ferry in Sydney daily and love the variety of stimulus that it brings. Travelling on Sydney harbour doesn't hurt either! The brompton tends to be a conversation starter too.
