At ScooterHire.co.nz, we allow ourselves to go off topic from time to time.
We liked the following video of a "Hover Scooter" that looked to be a nicely finished prototype back in 1960.
This is a cross between a motorcycle and a hovercraft.
Apparently the tweed jacket and tie worn by the dapper gentleman-rider was optional equipment.
This was filmed almost 50 years ago. There is no doubt that technological advancements from this time have dramatically changed and enriched our lifestyles. It is interesting to note that the advancement of a widely available levitating vehicle has failed to become a reality and has not advanced well beyond the point depicted in this video.
