Bankers on bikes
CAMDEN -- When three local bankers scoot through downtown Camden, they encounter a flurry of reactions ranging from impressed smiles to outbursts of laughter. Admittedly a bit self-conscious at the start, these professionals are now realizing huge savings at the pump, ultimately giving them the last laugh.
Camden National Bank Vice President and Director of Marketing Gino Bona admitted he feels a bit comical, especially when he is riding along on his scooter dressed in a business suit and helmet.
"When school let out, I had a handful of occasions right away riding around town," Bona said. "I've had high school kids just bust out laughing."
Scooter rider and Camden National Bank Senior Credit Analyst Mike Clark said, "I just tap the horn a few times. You've gotta have fun with it, you can't take yourself too seriously."
For the most part, people are curious about the miniature motorized bikes.
