I never had a scooter, I did however have a bike. I lived on a long quiet avenue in my childhood with the lake at one end and the road at the other end, so for thrills I'd go as fast as I possibly could up and down the avenue, going at maximum speed or "ramming speed". I'd challenge myself so as I grew up more I got faster and faster and faster. Now and then I'd be so fast I'd feel like I was going to break the thing but I'd keep going anyway.
