Good to hear buddy.
Hope you have a lot of fun!
Take care of your skin...and I don't mean 'moisturise'.
Gravel rash, hurts...for a long time!

I fear though, that you will be in the minority, safety and responsibility wise.
Humans can't always be trusted to behave as we would want them to.

Ps. Is that GMT gonna be...'safe'?

I agree with you there, humanity in general doesn't set a high bar

GMT was designed for speed!

Remember; there's no point to having the, "right of way", if you're the one in hospital.

How many pedestrians will need to be seriously injured or worse, before they are restricted to road use, and can be regulated (with compulsory insurance too).

It's illegal to ride a motorised moped on a pedestrian walkway, isn't it?
gas is illegal electric legal in the U.S mich just a matter of time when riders and peds start getting hurt they will make them illegal and rightly so
