Little over 135 miles of touring goodness over the weekend. Rained heavily overnight Friday. Warm and humid during the day Saturday. Big line of storms moved through camp Saturday around 7:15 p.m. Incredibly foggy Sunday morning. Got rained on during the final 4.5 miles to home. Tried to post some pics earlier but they wouldn't show.

Kinda cool. People will prolly **** it up.
What about when the batteries are dead, though? Not having to dock them in a specific place when you're done is pretty convenient, but it makes me wonder about the max range and logistics of charging. I'd also be interested in seeing data about who's using them and why. Are they really offsetting automobile use or just capturing users that would have otherwise walked?

I will land in your fair country tomorrow night, for a two week stay. Wish me luck. I'm just an unfrozen caveman. Your modern ways are strange to me.

Some more information on the business.

Not an issue here, but what if a bunch of scooters started clogging up the bike lanes?
