I guess it is a good thing it has no brakes, you would be jackhammering the concrete with your nose.
looks like a sit down version of the sedgeway.

Like it or not... strange stuff is on the way... and who knows, it may be fun
to ride... I tried a Segway out awhile back... it was fun, but not in a motorcycle sorta way... you do get the sense when riding a Segway that the laws of gravity have suddenly been changed...

Bombardier's been working on this one wheeled concept for awhile...

My wife has a Piaggio MP3. The Uno looks like it'd fit in the garage just fine.
