They are all of over the place... seems like there's one on every corner. Anything from scooters to full-blown crotch rockets. There may be an age limit on renting them, but I'm not sure. Probably just 18. And you probably have to sign a waiver and give a credit card # in case of damages.

Not sure about all of that, but it seems like that was the case a few years ago.

Hello,

Thanks for the info.. If you could give me the number of a place that rents crotch rockets and cruisers that would be great.. The group of us are 23-26 so credit cards and ID arent problems.

if you could let me know that would be great!

See you in PCB March 1st~!

Dave

Word to the wise

Hey,

My buddy no bull **** rented one of these things in Panama last year.( I wasn't there) But said he was doing some burn-outs..and when he got back to return it later that afternoon he was charged 150.00 bucks for excessive ware on the rear tire..be very carefull, after he had to pay for the wear, and fighting about it for hours they explained they hire kids 3 times during the day to report back with video anyone doing anything stupid or reckless.. ( For proof) his explanation was we have to pay very high insurance rates on these and jackAss kids like yourself will pay for being stupid!!

One last thing...He had to leave a $500.00 deposit that took 6 weeks to be credited back to his carg card...WTF
Buyer beware....

did you just call me a jack ***?

I appreciate the info.. I doubt I'll be going down that road anyways. It costs $40/hour to rent them.. thats a FN rip off.. I'm just going to rent a car instead.

Thanks,

Dave
