I'm thinking quite a long way ahead here but as a scooter would be an expensive purchase I want to make sure I've got all my facts in order first (before I ask for one for Christmas
.)
I've got a mountain bike with a Walkydog attachment and when she's old enough and fit enough it's my intention to ride on local bridleways with this set-up. Can I also use a bridleway with a scooter set-up? I mean, it's just another wheeled vehicle, sounds kind of obvious but I just know some council/National Trust jobsworth will try and object.
As I can technically hop off the thing and walk, could I use it on suitable footpaths too, or is that pushing it a bit?
How about permissive bridleways, is a landowner likely to pitch a fit if I turn up on a scooter?
Finally, how realistic is it that when fully grown and fully fit a single husky could run, either attached to the bike or a scooter, eight miles in one day?
The bridleway starts pretty much outside my house and goes off-road all the way to the yard where I keep my pony - it's pretty level once you're on the track, just a small uphill section at either end to get on to it - and I've got a half-baked idea in my head that we can bike/scooter down the yard once a week or so, have a water stop and break at the yard while I do the horse and then do the four miles home.
Cyrus, help! By the way, I forgot to comment on your thread the other day but apart from Madam's grumpy expression I was also amused that we have the same red wellies.
