A few weeks ago, my wife (Barb) above and I were invited to Spicer Village (a new development near downtown Akron University) to tour the property, and to learn to ride these upright rolling machines they call "Segways". It was a very cool experience, and since neither one of us had ever been on one before, it was definitely a learning curve (or should I say leaning curve?) Mr Mike Wiant (also above) who is the sales executive, and tour director, was very patient with teaching us how to roll around the parking lot.
Now that we have had an initial lesson, I think we are kind of hooked. We found another Segway tour in a National Park online, and are now going to go on that as well. these machines cost around 5k each, so I don't think I'll be buying my own, but it is really fun to ride, once you get your SEG LEGS.
If you get the opportunity, these things are worth checking out for yourself.
