I wonder when they will invent an off roader for people with disabilities

[jayjay]

...Or one that will cope with the pavements around here!

I like the japanese stroller better!

Can't find a link to one, but you stand up on them and they have two big wheels and a platform in the middle. They have a handle typ control arm to hang onto as well.

I think you mean a segway Jayjay?? Our local park has just started doing guided tours on them!

The very one, Glen! Thanks for the link. Although I'd never be able to afford one in a million years!

Guided tours eh? That would be quickie tours then! Some young 'un's can do very clever stuff on them, bit like skateboarding and stuff.

You can certainly off-road on them!!

Which park in Sheffield is doing the tours?

[glenw]

They were at Graves park but having looked at the website - segwaysheffield.co.uk - they have now moved onto Rother valley country park and Clumber park

EDIT;- reading more it does say tours are available at all 3 parks, Graves,RVCP and Clumber.

My secretary says she wants the honda as its the ultimate typists chair for going backwards and forwards across the office to the filing cabinet!!

Actually she seems to spend most of her time going back and fro to the coffee machine.
The day asimo can type shes fired.

Wow, makes me wonder just how quickly they will get round to mass production for folk with the kind of disability that this would suit.

However, I think it more likely to be developed and used by those of us who prefer never to get out of a chair and I bet it soon has a food tray and drink holder!!!!!!

Shame for me but it would defeat the object of my three days a week, 8/9 mile walks!!!. Looks great fun and would love to have a go though.

We (4 of us) hired Segways in Salou, Spain and was taken on a city tour which took about an hour and a half....One of the greatest machines i have been on. So easy to master and great fun.... would love one but about £3 grand for the cheepest one i think i will wait for my lottery numbers to come up.
