An anonymous 42 year-old Brooklyn scooterist suffered extremely mild injuries when he lost control of a rented Lyft scooter on a bike bath in Baltimore on Sunday morning, National Zero reports and yes this actually happened, lol. No, I did not go the hospital nor did I need to, and I simply righted the scooter and continued on my way to a nearby Catholic church to attend a baptism mass.
Pain is like a 2 out of 10. I am fine. This is not the reason it’s been 27 hours since the most recent article so much as a symptom of the same cause: out-of-town social obligations, hotel stay, nine hour-long party, so on. At the same time, my own scooter crash happening the day after the “scooterist” story was too friggin funny not to lead with in the headline and opener here.
