This is the lazy mans answer to alternative resources and alternative transportation.

I think the dog should be wearing a helmet.

Wouldn’t that be a real mess? You come around the corner at a good clip and find that coming at you…

Not that I would, but I wonder if you could hook that up to a small child.

If its family you can avoid child labor laws.

No. That would be the Segway (http://www.segway.com/products/)
Cripes!!! They even have an off road model now. Talk about taking the fun out of dirt.

The Segway wins. Those things piss me off. I've seen people riding them on the pike paths and sidewalks on those river tours and they aren't even allowed to be there because they are motorized.

Don't diss 'em before you try 'em. After riding them, I think they are sweet! Wish I could afford one! Plus granny bikers or rollerbladers go slower and are more often in the way on bike paths more than segways ever do, if that's what you're worried about.

They are probably more fun on pavement than off thought, don't think they'd be too versatile at Leb!

And they ARE allowed on bike paths, sidewalks, and on roads w/speed limits up to 35mph if no sidewalk is available... on the MN law books.
