There's a way to get FREE PARKING In Canberra!
In the Parliamentary Triangle and the city, car parking starts at $15 per day - and you can easily pay $20 per day. 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!
Your scooter saves you a whopping $18+ a day in the city. Riding ensures that money stays IN your wallet instead of a ticket machine... That's a saving of $90+ A WEEK.
That's a meal for two, multiple coffees, nice lunches, getting your nails done, a nice treat for yourself, a barber trip, you could even do a day trip with lunch on the weekend!

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 to the base of the neck 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 handlebars?
If you have any questions about products or how to get your winter gear set up, get in touch today.
