Hi Philip,
Good post I read with interest. Segway never really took off over here in the UK shame but "hey ho" as we say. So I bought second hand one a few years ago and loved it so much I am trying to kick start the interest here. We have a youtube just started and a website
www.offroadsegway.com and a FB page. We have a good supplier in China retailing out at about $2000. Not sure how that sounds in the USA but here in the UK it is a great price. I hope I can get things going and hold events, like races Polo fun days
