LA opportunity to ride the Segway
There are dates for non amazon customers. I'm an amazon customer, but not high tech high dollar customer, which is why I think I hadn't received this. A mentor forwarded this to me. I don't know if you can get amazon dates if you didn't personally receive this.

I went to the one today, and it was practically empty. I got to ride the Segway for almost 20 minutes. Now all I have to do is find $4950 lying around to buy one!

I went to the one on the 18th and I was the only person there for a while. I got to ride it for a long time too. The Segway staff was really impressed that I was on a FIRST team so they gave me a T-shirt!

Whoever says the Segway is stupid is themself stupid. That machine is awsome!
