More than joy rides

Graphic designers Thomas and Jane Wynn bought a trendy motor scooter three years ago for weekend joy rides; now they use it for their daily commute from Parkville to their jobs at Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center in East Baltimore. Jerry Hobbs Jr. and his father ride their new scooters over Carroll County's back roads from Taneytown to their furniture restoration business in Westminster. And restaurant consultant Steve Largent buzzes around the Baltimore area, from the Inner Harbor to Dundalk to Woodlawn, on a Chinese-made scooter while his 15-miles-to-the-gallon Ford pickup sits in the garage. Now he squeezes 100 miles out of a gallon of gas.
