In a move to reduce its carbon footprint, Strathclyde Police is going green by introducing the first ever electric scooter to be used for active duty by a Police Force within the United Kingdom. The Vectrix electric maxi-scooter will not only benefit the environment, it will bring many benefits to officers policing at Glasgow Airport. Strathclyde Police continually seeks ways to reduce carbon emissions and as the Vectrix is emission free, this innovative technology provides an effective solution.
The first lucky customer to receive their Desmosedici RR Grand Prix Replica in the UK, has allowed Ducati Glasgow to display his new pride and joy in their showroom over the weekend of the 26th and 27th of January 2008. The Ducati-mad Scotsman Scott Charles has finally taken delivery of his stunning Desmosedici RR nearly 6 years after ordering a bike that to begin with was only a dream. However he has been rewarded for his patience by receiving the first bike in the UK. The 36 year old engineer from Leven, Fife, first ordered the Desmosedici after reading about Ducati’s plans to go MotoGP racing and guessed that Ducati would produce a road going version before too long.
