This millionaire has more miles on his quad bike than on his fast cars

Oscar Ledlin is a property developer and investor. He is 34 and lives in Melbourne, Victoria. He is No. 52 on the Financial Review Young Rich List with an estimated wealth of $154 million.

An hour later, I was picking up an electric quad that was small enough for Romeo to grow into, but with a little more performance for Dad.
