Bicycles and crowds of people don't mix well at all because of the difficulty of starting and stopping and the need to maintain some speed to balance. Segways stop and stand still easily, like pedestrians. Could you push a grocery store shopping cart with a standard bicycle? You can easily on a Segway, or spin around in place to pull it. Segways are pretty cool, but I'd wager that anything you can haul with a Segway I could haul with a standard bike. Could be a John Henry moment. Several times I have pulled dollies/hand carts with around 200 pounds on a standard bicycle. |
