Segways at the Jamboree
Warning In Progress
I just did a tour of Washington DC on a Segway. These Green machines would be great at the Jamboree.

Segways have come under discussion several times for use at the jamboree. It remains an open item. A much more cost effective method of moving an individual from one spot to another is currently in use at the jamboree. It is a bicycle. A bicycle has the added advantage of providing a necessary component of personal fitness.

I totally agree. In the past the bikes can be very dangerous as they dart out from blind sports of buildings. I think the Segways would make it a much safer environment.
