Green Bay Press-Gazette – Gas-sipping scooters make comeback: “DE PERE — Joel Edler isn’t wishing for higher gas prices, but has to admit it’s been good for business.
He and his wife, Yvonne, opened Riverside Rides in June at 305 Lande St., De Pere, selling motorized scooters.
The bikes get between 75 and 125 miles per gallon.
Since gas climbed to $2.69 a gallon, business “has been just crazy,” he said. When he recently got a new shipment of 10 bikes, about half had already been presold.”
