Can you help Anne in Cleveland, Ohio?

Hi Elizabeth,

I've read your blog straight through--thanks for putting it up.

I'm looking to replace my aging conventional scooter and really intrigued by the TravelScoot's possibilities. I push my scooter hard and take it everywhere, but the idea of a scooter I could lift over a threshhold or up stairs is amazing.

I'm itching to just do it, but I really need to see one "in the flesh" before I buy, b/c with RA I have a lot of problems with my hands. I'm particularly worried about what the pins are like to fold and unfold it--sometimes, cotter pins can to be too stiff for me to budge. I'm also wondering whether the throttle will be difficult to work. (I'd love to hear if anyone else with hand problems uses a Travelscoot, and if they modified it).

So I was wondering if you could ask your readers if any of them live or will be within striking distance of Cleveland, OH and would let me come drool over their transportation (I'm up for a several hour drive; I really want to see this thing). Tony from Travelscoot is supposed to be asking around for me, too, but he said that a couple weeks ago and I haven't heard back from him, so I thought I'd look for other avenues, too.

Thank you,

Anne
