Looks like fun, but I need to work off the FOOD I eat in Epcot!

That was my first thought too!

As clutzy as I am, I have a feeling I'd be doing more face plants than site-seeing!

Thanks for the links Dan!

Thanks Dan, that was pretty cool. Unfourtanly I'm am not very coordinated and I would no doubt hurt myself trying to ride one.

How COOL! Thanks, Dan, for posting this. Got to add this to our list of things to do at WDW!

Actually, from what I have seen at Epcot, and read about, it is pretty easy to use, it almost balances itself. Here is a link or two to see further...............

It's easy, I come across ones I think people here might like, but not be aware of, I stick them up here.

Heidi, it's 'secret' is in the gyroscopes.

Hey guys! Glad you liked the video and the update. Don't worry about having to be too coordinated. The Segways were EASY to learn. Within less than 10 minutes everyone on the tour was up and running with little difficulty. When you think about it, if they ever expected these things to take off, they NEED to be easy to use!
