cheaper than a car, don't need to buy petrol or spend time and money on maintenance, insurance or parking
down side is not being able to transport things
Or go very far. I do love me a random road trip. Visiting my family out in Melton would be an ordeal too.
I did just transport a bag of groceries from Woolies back to my apartment though. There was milk in there and Docklands has very fashionable cobblestone 'features' at the ends of some streets so now I have milkshake.
I would not like to ride something small on the big streets. 😬
I know a very a good orthopaedic surgeon if you ever need one.
