It's not the Mopeds that bother me.

It's those callous swine who use them to destroy perfectly decent cabbage fields!

I am interested in all transport machinery, and for me the odd departure from micros is fine in moderation.

Being a member of the Higgledy-Piggledy Club I can assure you that our piggy members do not ride mopeds in cabbage fields and we don't have a callous amongst us!  ;D

Did they make mopeds? I thought they made scooters.
Why is it that the modern scooters are called mopeds? A moped has pedals.  The word moped was coined by Swedish journalist Harald Nielsen in 1952, as a portmanteau of motor and pedal.  ;D
