To have a really cool Segway, you must have fuzzy dice.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #71

While most people think that fuzzy dice on Segways riden by older people helps them relive their teenage years they in fact have a much more important function. They act as a pendulum to counter act the movement of the Segway and allow people with weaker equilibriums to stay balanced.

#1 Entry: Unbeknownst to Bill, the students substituted the Segway batteries for the FIRST approved batteries. Now he'll only be able to ride 2 minutes and 15 seconds before he needs to recharge.

#2 Entry: Bill to self. "Please don't let me screw up like President Bush did and fall down."

When the team told Bill he'd been selected to appear on "Pimp My Ride" he expected to get a little more than this!

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #71

Bill shows off the first successful after market add-ons, fuzzy dice and a radio (only true aficionados know tuning does not require a pinky). His first attempts included moon caps ( they wouldn't stay on the wheels), fire decals (fenders were too small), lake pipes (people kept asking about why the need for two shiny kickstands.), fuzzy tail (no antenna), and (my personal favorite) an "eight ball" shift knob (what shifter?).
