Question before I buy

[Oldgunner]

I am new to scootering. I have a 2009 Kymco People 150, and will be taking my licensing class in April. I have been running on a permit and have found that I enjoy it , so I decided I might get a 50cc for occasional use as well as being in the garage for the rest of the family to enjoy.
Today I looked at the Benelli sprint and the Benelli Breeze and I was impressed by them.
Questions remain however. I am 200 lbs and may be carrying up to 15-20 lbs at times. I live in the foothills of the Alleganys. Not the Rockies mind you, but I will occasionally hit fairly steep hills, which at most may be 1/4 mile in length. Will I be getting off the scooter to help push it up the hill ?
