I Rode A Segway Today!

[GaryT977]

The shop I work at became a Segway dealer a couple of weeks ago, and I finally got the chance to ride one today.

After a (really) brief tutorial in the parking lot, and after the learning mode had been set, I rode around the parking lot, into and around the showroom and into one of our offices, before I had to turn it over to someone else.

It was every bit as much fun as it looks, although it took me a minute to get the hang of standing absolutely straight. I can't wait to ride it again!

:sohappy:

:lol: That's so kool Gary!! I want to try it! But is there a height restriction? :lookaroun :lol:

 

[GaryT977]

No height restriction that I'm aware of, but I don't think they're for kids.

I want one to! Just because I love gadgets, but I'm not really sure what I'd use it for. :animwink:

Nice one, but I have heard about some of the blueprints on the 'deluxe' versions of these. . .you may not be too far off the mark. Of course, that is from the intelligence community.

There are some cool things being done with little remote controlled airplanes too... so cool I thought "Uh why didn't someone think of this a loooooong time ago?"
