Given that it can only stay upright if it has grip, I reckon they'd
watch with anticipation until you face-plant into the muck!

I don't think the latest models are actually on sale yet, they've just
updated their range. Not that I'm in the market for one of course,
I'd like to play with one but not actually buy one.

They'll claim it makes a sound like a low-flying jet, which is
apparently what 4x4s do! Nothing like a good bit of over-emotional
exaggeration eh ;-)

Would that be the same idiots who cross other people's land and forget
to close gates?

Not to mention letting dogs off the leads..

Not that we're generalising or anything ;-)

I've ceased giving a flying f*ck what the bobble-hat bearing, bigoted
bastards think.

I do think there's something ironic about this, though...

If you've ever had to remove a tyre to repair the inner tube on a tractor or
farm implement that has been used anywhere near a footpath frequented by
dog-walking morons then you'll know why farmers are less than dog (and
owner) friendly. Unfortunately tractor tyres don't just get covered in mud
and cow ****.

Weirdest sight of my recent holiday was a group of 15-20 Japanese tourists
zooming about mediaeval Siena on matching Segways, following a guide on a
Segway with a flag in the air. They just cruised noiselessly across the
square - looked a bit SF, to be honest.

Yeah, we're (Sheffield) now a focal point for Japanese students - and
I'm awaiting the influx of Segways here. Actually thought about
opening a hire business for them... Trouble is, Sheffield is built on
7 (substantial) hills, and the Seggy (so I'm told is its common usage)
simply wouldn't be up to it...
