Default A little crash :(

Unfortunately today, I was in front of my gate and when I open it to exit, my Segway has crashed into it.
I feel good, but my i2 has a little spot on the mudguard.

Yep, it happens. It takes about as long to learn how to ride a PT well, as it takes to learn to ride a bike well...

This is a life's lesson. I am glad you are okay, and the seg, it gives it character!

Or you could stick on matching Hello Kitty stickers, one on each side.

Hahaha, we are already 2 Seg posessors in my little city, if I also stick 2 Hello Kitty stickers on its side I would seem a gay (withouth offence)!

Angry without offence?

I always get offended when someone uses a term like "gay" to refer to something that is negative. You would feel uncomfortable having Hello Kitty stickers on your Segway, so you call them "gay". It's like people calling "handicapped" people "crips" or any of the other terms just because seeing a "handicapped" person makes you feel uncomfortable.

I guess it makes sense because narrow-minded people would feel uncomfortable when confronted "gay" or "handicapped" people.

In the future, do us all a favor and save your less-than-eloquent language for other places.

My two cents delievered.
