Go-Ped(R) Recycles Foreign Scooters to Clean Up America

RENO, Nev., March 31 -- Patmont Motor Werks, Inc., the manufacturer of the world renowned, American made, Go-Ped(R) line of scooter products, has developed a way of removing inferior and high emission foreign made scooters from roads and streets, and at the same time, help to preserve American jobs.

By taking part in the "Clean and Safe Scooter Recycling Program" any individual can exchange their non Go-Ped(R) electric, push or gasoline scooter for the highest quality, most reliable and environmentally friendly American Made Product, a Genuine Go-Ped(R) brand scooter. Individuals participating in this program will receive a 20% discount on the retail price of any Patmont Motor Werks, Inc. product.

Patmont is motivated by the proliferation of unsafe, highly polluting and very poor quality scooters recently sold in the USA. Most of them are made overseas, using poor quality materials, poor or non-existent quality control and highly polluting engines. Their sale and usage have wrought substantial damage upon the environment. Also, many now collect dust in the garage of their purchasers, since they broke only after a few hours of use, and repair, warranty, service, or parts were and are not available domestically.

All scooters returned under the program will be disassembled and their parts will be recycled to keep the environment healthy and safe. Scooter users are also being educated on recycling and its benefits through the company's website and flyers circulated in schools and local communities.

For more information concerning the Clean and Safe Scooter Recycling Program, please contact your local authorized Go-Ped(R) dealer, found at www.goped.com, or email Ms. A. C. Moratin, Director of Sales, Patmont Motor Werks, Inc., at MoratinA@goped.com.
