I saw a group of six to eight touring Washington DC on Segways and thought
they looked liked the way to see the outdoor sights. I read the Segway
pamphlet regarding age and physical requirements and it stated that the
person needs to be able to step on and off quickly and wondered if this
would be a problem for me.
I also wondered about balancing, however, after riding my bicycle a few
times in SeptemberI think I could also balance on a Segway. I would be
game to try one.
I didn't post that I had finally overcome my fear of getting on and of my
bike and was able to ride it for twenty minutes around town. Yay! What
freedom! My new goal is to someday be able to ride around Mackinac Island
which was our favorite vacation spot before TM. We haven't been back
there since TM in 2003.

Some of you may have seen this article in the newspaper but thought it
was interesting. I've never seen a Segway in "real life," only a
picture of one
Does anyone out there with TM use a "standup" Segway?

winter snow!)
