nwhikerSeems like lj is still a bit spotty. Not sure if this will post or not.
Conversation with Perrythis yesterday Thursday evening, as I rode my scooter and he his bike around the driveway.
Me: "Look at me!" I showed him how I could stick one leg out in front of me as I was zipping around. And then I showed him how I could hook my leg behind my other knee.
Perry: "Pretty cool. Like a flamingo!"
Me, suddenly wondering. "Where do you guys put your pushing leg when you're coasting?"
Perry: "Foot hovering over the brake in case we need to stop suddenly."
Me: "Oh."

Date: 1 Aug 2011 01:48 (UTC)A neighbor kid was scootering the other day, in flip-flops, and he kept dragging his foot to slow down (instead of using the brake). Drove me crazy! I was sure he would rip the skin off a toe.
