The vehicle that I like is the one wheel scooter. Because it looks so cool. It is self balanced and very convenient to handle. It runs up to 16 km/hr.
Biking Summer Learning Journey Week 4 day 19
Let’s imagine that the neighbouring town was about 30 kilometres away. There are a number of beautiful villages and interesting things to see along the way. You have four options for this trip. You can take a:
- Train – 25 minute ride; No stops along the way; $12 for the trip (return)
- Bus – 45 minute ride; Two stops along the way to look at interesting villages; $8 for the trip (return)
- Scooter – 1 hour ride; Unlimited number of stops; $5 for the trip (return)
- Bicycle – 2 hour ride; Unlimited number of stops but there are some hills along the way; $1 (return)
I would choose bicycle, because this is the cheapest option. Also there are unlimited number of stops to have photos of the scenic views. There are some hills along the away, could be good exercise and I feel that bike riding is more fun.
