Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if it rains?
The tours are held rain or shine. We ask that you dress appropriately for the day's weather conditions. We do have rain ponchos available for free at the meeting location in the case of rain.

Is the tour appropriate for pregnant women?
Due to safety concerns, the tour is not appropriate for pregnant women.

What are the weight constraints to ride a Segway?
All gliders must be above 100 lbs (45.36 kg) and below 250 lbs (113.40 kg) in order to ride a Segway with us.

What is a Segway?
The Segway® i2 is the first of its kind - self-balancing personal transportation designed to go anywhere you go.

Is it hard to ride a Segway? What if I've never ridden a Segway before?
The Segway HT requires no special skills (it takes care of the balancing on two wheels part) and virtually anyone can use one as long as you can stand on two feet for an extended period of time.

How fast do the Segways go?
The Segways have different levels of operation. The beginner level will limit the Segway to a maximum of 6 miles per hour. The intermediate level will limit the Segway to a maximum of 9 miles per hour. During the training session, everyone will start on the beginner level. Once everyone is comfortable, we will move up to the intermediate level for the duration of the tour.

How safe is the Segway i2?
The utmost care and research has gone into ensuring that the Segway i2 is safe. The Segway i2's balancing technology is truly revolutionary and provides an exceptional riding experience. The Segway i2 has redundant systems and sophisticated alerts built into its design and many thousands of hours of use have demonstrated that the Segway i2 is safe when used appropriately. It is important that Segway i2 riders understand their responsibility to ride safely. Proper skill level and understanding of the Segway i2 prevents injuries caused by loss of control or misuse.

Do I have to sign a waiver? All Segway riders must sign a liability waiver before participating. Riders 12 to 17 years old must have a parent or guardian sign for them.
