I took my engineering students to the Science Center for a Segway class. Being fearless teenage boys, they took to it immediately. They got to ride for an hour and a half through an obstacle course - up and down a ramp, across a bumpy track of 2x4's, and around a set of cones. Since we were indoors, the Segways were limited to a speed of 6 mph (which I'm pretty sure the boys maxed out), but most of my pictures still came out blurry.
