OFF ROAD SEGWAYS ! NEW FOR 2011 !
For those who are not familiar with the Segway, be assured that it is incredibly easy to learn to ride, taking just a few minutes to master. We frequently hear people say that they had no idea how easy it would be, or how much fun. Indeed it is not uncommon for us to see some of our customers three of four times a year, often bringing friends and visitors along to join them.
