Ride home.

I am fortunate in that I have about a dozen good restaurants within very easy walking distances from where I live. One is called the Hunt and has a Rolls to pick up and drop off groups of diners. They also have a bar and these I believe are used to ferry the single people home. :D

oneputt,
Very nice indeed!
I'm thinking to buy one of this or a Vespa to ride from DRP (Boat Harbour) to Nelson Bay during this summer.

If the price of petrol keeps going up - everyone will be riding one soon. I used to commute in Sydney on a scoot and got to say it was great fun BUT beware of the car drivers as they generally don't have much patience :x

More like they don't have the ability to check their blindspots esp the suburban tractor drivers :evil:

You're pretty observant Zeeke... but then again, you are a local!

Love the concept, love the image Oneputt - really crisp! Keenly spotted and well captured.
