Boom and bust in the scooter market

I just noticed that the big new scooter shop on Victoria Rd in Drummoyne is now for lease.

Either they moved on to bigger and better premises..... or they've moved on to going out of business.

Scooter shops popped up like weeds after rain when fuel prices went up last year. I guess there was a limit to how many people wanted to trade in the Commodore with climate control, cruise control, leather seats, a good sound system and so on for bugs in the face and rain trickling down your neck.

A walloper friend of mine sympathised with me about being stuck behind scooters - he described them as "rolling roadblocks".
