Got a scooter when I worked in Mai-liao (Formosa Plastics and Petroleum Corporation) and I used it to go wandering in farms watching people working in the fields. <BR/><BR/>One time I passed by a couple harvesting honeydew melons. I asked for some cracked melons and their offered it to me. They even cut some good ones for me to eat. Before I left, I took some money from my pocket to pay them which they did not aggree. How nice and industrious their people are. <BR/><BR/>I was also amazed with their mechanized farming.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1521718922817177004.post-79457021350333493552008-07-27T04:13:00.000-07:002008-07-27T04:13:00.000-07:00Scooters does pollute the air ! In Italy, Indo, Vietnam (n Taiwan ?) u see folks wearing nose-filters to prevent their lungs from smog n pollution.<BR/><BR/>Having said that, it is exhilarating to ride a fast scooter. U could easily weave thru congested roads !<BR/><BR/>The dutch r big users of their bicycles. I hv a bike but cant get the hang of it. Hv fallen down numerous times - am black n blue, so I gave up! That means walking the 25mins (bus service scraped after making endless losses) to the local train station whenever I need to commute to the city :-(Dutchienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1521718922817177004.post-22923015565398125142008-07-26T10:23:00.000-07:002008-07-26T10:23:00.000-07:00@CK<BR/><BR/>With the price of gas these days... scooters are a better option than cars... no air-conditioning though...<BR/><BR/>@blog2u<BR/><BR/>Hmm... No... I don't really get around that much... either it's a looooong trip (by bus), or a short trip (by my bicycle), or if I do get out, I take the subway (KMRT)...JChttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14707089018808365784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1521718922817177004.post-86744039484919609182008-07-06T09:54:00.000-07:002008-07-06T09:54:00.000-07:00So are you going to get yourself a scooter?Blog2uhttp://www.blog2u.com.ph/wordpressnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1521718922817177004.post-39134400287100665802008-07-01T16:43:00.000-07:002008-07-01T16:43:00.000-07:00It's really a convenient transport especially if the country is large and the public transport is not as efficient. <BR/><BR/>Come to think of it, a scooter is more efficient than a car (with all that useless bulky chasis) and definitely faster than a bike. <BR/><BR/>I've seen a young girl riding a bike and carrying her two younger brothers (front and back) in Taiwan before. <BR/><BR/>Over here in London, bikes giving way to bicycles... and the Mini Coopers!C Khttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02288958257776985342noreply@blogger.com
