Rodney Ali, an avid e-scooter rider in Melbourne’s eastern suburbs, has clocked up 2,750km on footpaths and bike tracks on his Veloz X1, with Penny the kelpie racing alongside him. Ali loves his marathon scooter rides, except for one thing: his interactions with cyclists.
“Ninety-nine per cent of people on foot are great. I always ring my bell so they are warned. I always slow from 15-20 metres away and pass just above their speed,” he says.
