There's a way to get FREE PARKING In Canberra!
In the Parliamentary Triangle and the city, car parking starts at $16 per day - and you can easily pay $20 per day for a car in the city. If you park your scooter and take a full car space you will of course pay car parking rates. However there are designated motorcycle parking areas all over Canberra and they are free of charge!
Riding your scoot into the city saves you $19+ a day.
Riding every work day for a year will save you $4400 in parking alone! We can sell you a new registered scooter each year for less than that!
If that is not incentive enough, then add the lower costs of fuel to that and you'll save even more.

Don't let Canberra's winter cold make you pay for parking!
3 Months of Canberra winter parking in the City will set you back $1200; so a small spend on you, or your scooter, to be able to withstand the cold might be worth it.
Canberra winter mornings are renowned for being chilly, however - we have clothing, some that doesn't even look like motorcycle protective gear.
FOR YOU - we recommend the following clothing for winter:
1. A waterproof motorcycle padded jacket with a winter thermal lining. As you can see, the motorcycle jackets made by Armadillo do not even look like motorcycle jackets.
2. Good quality winter gloves, or maybe some possum-wool under gloves.
3. A neck warmer/necksock.
These are worn up over the lower half of the face and cover your neck and goes into your jacket, to ensure that wind doesn't hit your neck whilst riding.
4. Thermals if you have a very long commute - investigate some now!!
YOUR SCOOTER
There are things to do to your scooter as well. How about a leg cover, a winter windsceen, or heated handgrips?
If you have any questions about products or how to get your scooter Winter ready please get in touch.
