Sounds to me like your avid biker friend is incredibly rude. Yelling insults at passing strangers isn't the way people should act.

As to the Segway being one of the worst inventions ... I don't believe it should be on that list. Is it a failed business project: Yes, absolutely, but a failed invention: no.
