I thought we were still talking bicycles, but you could haul that into the city
without getting too many glares.

My brother is a transit cop (MetroTransit). He saids because of the
fuel, it will be banned from the subway. :^(

You could do an electric version, though.

That sounds like an interesting project.

I seem to recall a suitcase scooter, where the wheels popped out of the
bottom, and a seat and handlebars folded up, from inside. Anyone remember
that one?

After some assembly, you ended up riding on top of the closed suitcase. Cool
idea. Gas powered, IIRC.

So you do remember seeing it? I'm hopeful I was not hallucinating. (again)

On top of the 'upright' closed suitcase - you're essentially sitting on the
handle. Like riding a miniature horse - with wheels.

You guys are thinking way too high tech. My son recommends a skateboard.
