People ride scooters all over Bermuda without any of that except the
helmet.


I see people riding all manner of scooter, moped and motorcycle around
here in shorts and flip flops, no helmet.

I know. I see people here doing it on big bikes all the time too. As a Motorcycle Safety Foundation
instructor, I cringe whenever I see it.

I always wear a helmet. You and Wayne have seen the pictures of why...


Excessively ugly head?

No, to keep from having one, that is if I had survived the wreck.

Scooters in Bermuda are commutation vehicles. It is very common to
see middle aged professionals riding scooters with suit, tie, bermuda
shorts and knee socks.
