Speaking of Segway

July 20th, 2004

It seems you could take a trip to Madison and take a ride on a Segway with Wonders on Wheels. They let you ride a Segway for a fee and will take you on a tour. It does not seem like such a bad idea I suppose. Someone told me the city is doing a trial program for either the police or mail services to use Segways to get around. That seems like an enormous amount of money to just travel around when you could just walk, use a bike or even use a push scooter if you must. The last I heard a Segway was over $3000 to buy and I am sure maintenance has to be expensive due to the complex technology. But as a gimmick, I think it would be appealing to take a tour on a Segway. I just wish they had one here in Milwaukee.
