"For running errands or shopping in the warmer months, she’ll opt for capris, an A- line skirt with tennis shorts beneath, a long flowing skirt or a dress wide enough to straddle the seat. Wedges would be the only type of heels she would plant on the floorboard."

I'm sure the capri's have CE approved armor.

read it last week-end Maggie and while it is always good to see a scooter article in a major publication the a line skirt with tennis shorts is no solution for road rash

It's amazing what can be accomplished when no one cares who gets credit.

:/ one would think the article would give tips on how to AVOID road rash, but every single example would wind up with road rash if they went down...

I think a better title for the article would be "Road rash with style". Then they could do a follow up "Designer skin grafts".
