When I was a youngster many, many years ago a scooter was rather a mundane piece of play equipment, generally used by girls, but sometimes by boys if they wasn't fortunate to possess a bike.

But whoever had one, they did not get up to the tricks some kids of today can achieved from them, it was just scoot up and down the pavement and nothing else.

Even the bikes, not a patch on the BMX trick cyclists of today, the most daring stunt in those distant days was to ride with no hands on the handlebars or riding the bike back to front and if one really wanted to get noticed, then it was a piece of card trapped in the spokes of the wheels so as to give out a flapping noise.
