With my neighbors as training wheels (and in exchange for letting them ride, too), I took my Segway out for practice and a spin around the neighborhood. It feels pretty weird the first time you get on, but after a few minutes it feels fine. The hardest thing to adjust to is turning; the left handle controls left (rotate forward) and right (rotate toward you) turns. If you’re accustomed to motorcycle controls, that seems odd and unnatural. I’m starting to get the feel for it, but It will take a few more rides for that to seem natural. I’m planning on Segwaying to the office tomorrow.
