Scooter rental

I had an idea about how to get around the southern coast when I stay in Faro. While I am in the city of Faro, I don't plan on having any transportation. However, I would like to visit Lagos and Luz Beach (to rent a sailboat), which is about 1 hr drive (1 1/2 hr by train) from Faro. To get to Luz, I would need to take a train to Lagos and then either a bus or city train to Luz, which could take another 45 or so minutes. Frankly, this sounds like a pain. 

So, I started looking at scooter rentals. How cool would it be to take the train to Lagos and rent a scooter for the day? I could go all over Lagos and make it to Luz beach without having a 2nd leg on the train or bus. I found a company called Motorent: www.motorent.pt/ that rents scooters. A 3-day rental of a 50cc scooter is 60 Euros. I'm hoping that they do single day rentals and have contacted the company about it. That would be so fun to ride a scooter along the coast of Portugal!
