Title: SAAS Motorcycle
Post by: mengcfs on April 06, 2011, 12:33:05 PM: I saw one of these the other day. Channel 7? (not sure if News or Today Tonight) are doing a story on them.
Anyone got any info about the bikes and the service they will provide...I presume first response.

Thanks.

My father-in-law used to ride motorbikes for St Johns Unley many, many years ago.
I would be interested in pictures if anyone has them. Thanks.
