[Noisebridge-discuss] Hacking disability

Travelscoots are neat, but pretty expensive ($1500-2K) Sometimes you
can find them cheaper on ebay or craigslist.  You will likely still
not want to have to fold and carry it up a flight of stairs. So you
have to have a place to store it at ground level.

Nana, if we do find you a scooter like mine, do you have a place to store it?
