So Now what happens?? What if I or another shows up at Bistro Bis on a Segway! are we welcome or is it "Here we go again" I know that i did post I won't return to Bi's for Dinner ..But the few times I was there I enjoyed a nice meal and I actually would return one day..But I am a Segway Owner

Now I agree with Nadya We seem to be beating a Dead Horse.(For the ones that didn't understand her last post)..You all have your opinions and won't budge one way or the other ,myself included..And finally I agree the guy that brought the Segway in ,in the first place could or schoud of left by the doorway within sight and asked for a table where he could keep an eye on it .Or put it back in his Room at the hotel and if not staying there back in his car trunk..I take mine to New York City and glide all over midtown and have been to several restaurants and even get the free plug-in and never a n negative comment ..So Rock I also say lock this up and put it to Bed..We have a no-win thread going on here

One thing that has not been addressed..Why one rides the segway into an establishment ...While your standing on the segway you take no more room then then if you left it out side..if you dismount and try to bring it inside , you would be like pushing or pulling a handtruck or wheelbarrel..So what would you have me do the latter and yell "Gangway" or the former and just say "Excuse me" and glide in...That is first if I was allowed in with the segway in the first place. I can glide one mile an hour or the top speed of 12.5 My choice..I read all the treads here it still seems most of you still don't understsnd a segway, some consider it a MotorVehicle, some a toy some a mobility device (which it is) Some of you are hardheaded against it from the start and will never consider the good points. And lastly some I think are just jealous and would like to have a segway.So post negative remarks ..And some are resonable to the various uses of a new technology be it for the disable or ablebodied person. It' here and adjust to it . Just like 100 years ago the Horse and Wagon people had to adjust to the Automobile The Picture is myself on the left at Rockerfeller Center on an XT unit and a tourest tring out a Demo ( Nice young lady from Canada)

Ok I am New here this my first Post and I just had to put my two cents in on this Thread...I am 72 years old I have a Segway, I can stand for long periods but can't walk for two long for two reasons ,one I get out of breath--Two I get Shin Splints(Pain in the calf) from walking ..When segway came Out I thought is was a Blessing in disquise. I am not considered Disabled by law..And I do use my Segway to go all over Town where I use to have to drive and use up Gas..Again another reason the Segway is good..I go into all the Restaurants and Stores in my Town and am Welcome to bring the Seg in with me..So I have to disagree with Nadya in most all that she has Posted. And the ones that seem to be agreeing and showing Smikes between the lines and Joking. Even tho I have what I consider my disability I will not goto a Doctor to get a Letter of Disability till my problem is really Bad ..I let the Parking spots in parking to the ones that are confined to wheelchairs..Not for me because of a little pain...The Segway does away with that..Just my two Cents And I will not visit the Bistho Bis on my future trips to my trips to DC,I have been there but walked in. I'll take my Business to a Place that will Welcome a Customer wheather there on Segway or Wheel Chair or by Foot...And besides the segway takes up much less room then a WheelChair
