摘要

Stand-up scooters are all the rage among preteens and adolescents. But a growing number of adults are zipping around on scooters of a different kind: the motorized bikes Europeans have relied on for transport since the 1940s. Audrey Hepburn rode one in Roman Holiday, but more recently, scooters have made cameos in The Talented Mr. Ripley and the Austin Powers films, as well as numerous music videos and print ads. The exposure has given the scooter a retro cachet, allowing it to ride the same nostalgia fad as the Volkswagen Beetle. There are also practical reasons for the scooter's growing popularity. With gas prices soaring and urban parking spaces hard to find, "scooters have become unbelievably popular," says Barry Synoground, publisher of Scoot! Quarterly, a magazine dedicated to the trend.
