my dads got one, and tommy got it completely right, old bearded weirdos ride them. so unless you dont mind looking like one, then they ride ok and can go up hills, they are fast, but because people who ride them enjoy lieing down and are lazy they are always crawling along. its hard to go up curbs becuase you have no leverage and they dont handle well in traffic because of the large turning circle. just stay ona fixed untill your over 50.
