Thanks.

My pleasure
Honestly, I've been researching a LOT of alternatives, and the Segway for me just seems to be the best fit. If the Yike Bike were a standing scooter (which it really is an electric scooter with a seat - not a bike), it would work.
The other toy I was considering was the spnKiX. That got horrible reviews! They're being sold for $700, and one guy hated them so bad (heavy, hard to learn) that he sold them for $100.
But every time I swipe my metro card to travel 1.7 miles to/from home, I know I've wasted money, especially as a Segway owner. I have to just stop being fearful of what may happen and use it, park it in the bike room and call it a day.
With the $4,000+ saved from NOT buying the Yike Bike, I'm sure I can cover the insurance deductible to replace it if something happens
