SCOOTING: Jim Gault, 38, rode his five-year-old son’s scooter from Lakemba to Hurlstone Park [5.7 kms] today with a two-fold purpose — to beat the rail strike and win a bet of £1 and 10 schooners. He will have to ride the scooter from his work to the Canterbury Hotel tonight to complete his side of the wager.
