    Eyeballed a couple of Segway scooters attempting (unsucessfully) to mix it with the bicycles in the meadows. What's all that about then?

    I saw them too! They're huge, they're as big as a folded Brompton, with a long pole and handlebar.

    My little brother sold segway tours of Granada for a summer, never got over for a shot though.

    I thought they would be quite a cool way to get the masses from their cars for the commute. I wouldn't use one, it would take to bloody long at 10mph
