TravelScoot Repair Resources

Welcome to Mimi, a new TravelScooter:

Thank you for creating and maintaining your blog.  It helped me decide to go ahead and get a TravelScoot and while it is still very new to me, it already feels like a life-changer at a challenging time.

I don't know anyone else in my state who owns a TravelScoot (although I know several folks in CA who do -- and they LOVE them!).  I want to be prepared in case of damage or maintenance needs.  I'm not at all handy, so I'd love to find a shop near me that might be able to handle the kinds of small repairs I might expect from regular use.

Do you (or any of your readers) know of any repair shop resources in Massachusetts?

Thank you!

From Keith:

We just got back from a Panama relocation cruise.  We went on a snorkel and boat tour in Huatulco and the TravelScoot came along.  Pardon the picture of me but I don’t have one with a shirt on.  Anyways, thought you might get a kick out of another unusual place the Travelscoot has gone.


From Julie:

I just wanted to show you how my Scoot fits in the hatchback of my 2013 Ford C-Max hybrid.  I love your blog and how you are sharing everyones great experiences.


From Dean:

Dean says his scoot wants to grow up and be a tank, and here's the picture to prove it!

Retirement

Photo by Carol Squires
This is from Lynn Ellen, who is describing a recent adventure she had with her friend Pat:

Pat and I each did our physical therapy workout at the Albany Pool and then got on our scooters and proceeded to go a mile up Solano and then return on the other side of the street, stopping for lunch, yarn, a haircut (Pat), coffee~and at Peet's, a quick food shop, a visit to a store with amazing Native American goods, another stop at the yarn store, and then back to the car. It took four hours round trip, the sun was warm, the air cool, the sky intense blue and the cotton puff clouds exquisite. It has been a number of years since I've walked two miles like that and while I wasn't walking, I was getting fresh air, using and building core strength on my TravelScoot, visiting with shop keepers and it was utterly fulfilling. THIS is what I've wanted from retirement.
