Article was a home run
Thanks for the mention of our service recently (see “It’s One in the Morning — How Sweet!” by Jeff Inglis, November 2). We feel we benefit both our clients by avoiding OUIs and the community by making the streets safer. I am presently getting bundled up in three layers of clothing for the evening as we do have three scooters that we run all winter long in addition to the car teams for the longer trips. Pictures of two of our scooters can be found on the “about us” page of our Web site, www.homerunners.biz.

Listing our number (332-RIDE) might help some of your readers get home safely this holiday season rather than getting behind the wheel after a few drinks.
