Why? So you can take your cheap ride with you everywhere! Never leave home without it! Plus, it'd be runny to be a Flash guy at a bio lab and you fly up the grav pad and proceed to run a guy over or get blown up.
I forget which one it is (I think it's on indar) but one of the biolabs has a rocky ledge near it, with boosts you can get harassers flashes and even maggies onto the biolab.
