How this for a spectacular shot? Chicago's own version of the Champs D'Elysee, a breathtaking view made even more magnificent with the subtle addition of the Segway.
Dress rehearsal before the big show. Sometimes I like to come out on the stage before the crowds show up, when everthing is still and quiet, no costumes or makeup, without the glare of the spotlight, and just take in the moment.
(yeah, this is not a great shot, you have to squint a little to see the Segway on the stage)
"I do not, for one, think that the problem was that the band was down. I think that the problem *may* have been, that there was a Stonehenge monument on the stage that was in danger of being *crushed* by a *Segway*. Alright? That tended to understate the hugeness of the object."
Tailgating at last week's Bears game. Normally a raucous affair, the Segway refused to whoop it up, preferring instead to keep true to the assigned post of Designated Driver.
Apparently I was not the only one who had this idea. We quickly became friends of course but neither of us were Sox fans or actually that interested in baseball...
Here we are in front of Mr. Farrakhan's house. Despite putting on my best bowtie, I was not granted an audience with the man and will have to find another avenue for pitching my million-Segway march!
It was only after months and months of patience and diligence that I was finally accepted by the flock and allowed to glide freely among them as we gathered around the watering hole.
Been absent for awhile but still keeping an eye out for Segways. Here are some that Yahoo outfitted as chariots at the recent Consumer Electronics Show in Vegas.
This is the second guy to tell me that I can't ride the Seg into the park - but he doesn't quite seem to grasp the irony here.
Stopping in at the FedEx-Kinkos...
Yes, I would like 100 copies of this Segway. Can you have that done by lunchtime?
Though I was crusin' along at 2.5 miles over the posted limit, the officer was kind enough to let me off with a warning after I let her take a spin.
This is probably as close as we'll get to an amphibious Segway.

No question... The Segway on the couch wins my vote for best spotting!
Hats off!
Okay -- so I'm telling you that the Segway needs to go have a cup of coffee and hit the CTA -- c'mon -- please tell me you take requests!

Watch out! We're multiplying!!!
I scream, you scream, we all scream for Segways. Freakin' sweet!
Give a man a fish, he'll eat for a day. But let him take a spin on the Segway and he'll forget all about that silly parable...
No MAN! Rook to Queen 5! Seriously, you should go back to parchesi.

I am sending this to Microsoft to replace the default background for the next version of Windows. Its soooo much nicer than that silly green hillside!
Now, I'm not saying the Segway has any supernatural powers or anything but check out these BEFORE and AFTER pics

Another collision of art and technology...
No, sillies, you're supposed to ride them. I guess noone reads instruction manuals these days. Sheesh!
Had to take a brief moment to pause here at this vista point to survey my future.
One day, lad, all this will be yours.
What, the Segway?
Celebrating World Series Champs!
Notice the official ticker-tape?

Look who is back for another round!?!
What is it about the Segway that scares away all the kids from the playground?
I tried over and over to snap this shot but she kept jumping into the picture!
As soon as I announced that I was giving rides, a line formed and soon snaked around the entire block!

More art-appreciation.

I'm in AWE at the free time demonstrated by this thread. What's your secret?
