Motorcycle rentals - "Fun Bikers"
Posted: Tue Oct 14, 2003 11:18 pm
Dear all
As promised I stopped by the new bike rental place in Canaan today, on the Milford Road (about 10 mins from Crown Point). There were about 8 bikes parked outside the office, of varying vintage but at cursory glance they seemed in reasonable fettle, with oiled chains, nothing hanging off etc. The Yamaha Tenere looked nice. There was only one token scooter, the rest were trail (off-road) bikes, fully fitted with road gear, lights, indicators etc.
Ian, the owner, informed me that renters must possess bike licenses in own country to rent one - eg a 125 cc UK license would also restrict to same here, etc. The tel number is 6310352, no fax or email (yet - he expressed vague interest in a website, but hadn't heard of this site).
Here are the prices in $tt per day:
Scooter 50cc - 105
125cc - 150
250cc - 150
600cc - 180
750cc (!) - 180
All in all cheaper than four wheels. I dare say that weekly rates could be haggled too.
Hope this helps those who wish to relive their wasted youths and terrorise the beaches/forests!
Regards, and ride safely unless you want to end up in Scarborough General, or worse.
