DO IT!

For my DS, my Dsis, and myself, it was a big highlight of our trip! It was so much fun and the tour guides are wonderful helping you learn to use the Segway. When they first began instructing us, I thought I'd never be able to remember everything and would be such a doofus, but it's amazing how easy it actually is once you get aboard. Not one person in our group of 10 knocked down a cone in practice although one person did take a fall over in World Showcase. We were riding single file at the time and she was way up ahead of us so I don't know what caused her to fall. She was okay and got right back on and finished the tour. You do have to pay attention to what you're doing and not let your attention wander very much but, other than that, it really is easy and FUN, FUN, FUN!

We are planning to do this in March. I am such a doofus though...my DH is already imagining how he is going to call the paramedics.
 
This looks great! Question though...my hubby and son(23) are big guys! Hubby is 6'7' and about 270. Son is close to the same. I see there is a 250 weight limit. Is that an honor system, or will the actually weigh someone? Or, do they put that limit, but not really abide by it?

I started a thread about this back in October. (link). There wasn't a definitive answer, but you might find it helpful to read. :wave:
 

Thanks! Yes, it does help some. But, it seems that the only way to really know is just go for it, and hope no one says anything. I wonder if they would refund the money if they decided you were too big??
