Author: Bob

[ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 05:19:56 11/27/07 Tue Mayor Bertrand Cadart, of Glamorgan-Spring Bay in Tasmania's East Coast is to become the first Australian mayor to have a motorbike as his official vehicle. Mr Cadart, who is currently testing models to see which would best suit carrying out his mayoral duties, said "Of course I'm not sure how things will work when we will have visitors and dignitaries that I may have to cart around to show around the municipality but we also have a pool of cars and I can always borrow a car if need be." He added that he prefers a bike to a car as it is cheaper to buy and run as well as being less polluting. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
