From revolutionising the school run for families to making the commute quicker, calmer, and cheaper, the brand has been providing scooters for kids and adults for over 20 years.
1. Brighton Seafront, East Sussex
All smooth paving, salty air and people-watching gold. Scoot from the pier to Hove Lagoon, stopping for coffee in the beach huts. Trainers or chunky sandals are both welcome.
2. Victoria Park, East London
Wide paths, lakeside loops, and a fabulous Sunday market. Park the car, bring the scooter, and wear something loose and layered.
3. Albert Dock to Otterspool Prom, Liverpool
A scenic, flat ride with the Mersey as your backdrop. You’ll pass street art, museums and locals out for a jog. Ideal for scooting in flatforms.
4. Bristol Harbourside
Scoot past boats, bars and bookshops with zero traffic stress. A fun, cultural mix of old and new.
5. Peckham Levels to Burgess Park, London
This one's for the stylish city crowd. Start at rooftop hangout Peckham Levels, then scoot through parks and street murals to one of London’s most underrated green spaces.
6. The BALTIC to Ouseburn Valley, Newcastle
Creative energy meets riverside calm. Start at the gallery, then explore cafes and hidden bars by scooter. Bonus points for leopard print anything.
7. Stratford-upon-Avon Town Centre Loop
History, cobbles (with smoother paths alongside), and riverbanks galore. Pack a picnic, ride at your own pace and dress like you’re in a period drama - just make sure you’ve got grip soles.
8. The Prom in Aberystwyth, Wales
Scoot the curve of Cardigan Bay on this wide, open coastal stretch. End with chips on the sea wall. Looks great in a long skirt and sunnies.
9. The Meadows, Edinburgh
A big flat green space made for gliding. Great spot for people-watching and spontaneous rounders. Just bring layers - it is Scotland, after all.
10. Sefton Park to Lark Lane, Liverpool
Tree-lined paths, Victorian glasshouses, and a bustling independent high street at the end. A perfect pairing for your scooter and a great pair of boots.
Style it your way
Wherever you're heading, pair your Rocket Dogs with a Micro scooter and turn a regular walk into something that feels like freedom. No petrol. No traffic. Just you, your outfit, and the open path ahead.
