Segway Rally
This saturday I went segway rallying with mike, I had a great time, although I did sprain my arm in a pretty big crash, see the video below.
I took my new flip ultra video camera (a bargain at £45 from ebay) and duck taped it to the handlebars of the segway.
I wasn’t really expecting much from it, but it out did itself, the simplicity of the interface makes it easy to pickup and shoot, then easily import it into iMovie, plus at such a low price I’m not to worry about destroying it so I can get some great footage that most people wouldn’t usually risk.
If you’ve not rode a segway before, I highly recommend it. It’s like nothing else and so easy to get the hang of, you’ll be flying around like a pro after 5 minutes. The rally was provided by Seghire, it’s £69 for two and last about 2 hours, with everything you need included.
Also, on the time trial lap we each did at the end I was the quickest (47s), including being a whole second faster than the instructor!
Looks awesome, how’s your arm doing?

Got a massive great bruise on it, but functionality is returning day by day
