Has anyone tried a Solowheel?
 
I'm a sucker for some moby technology. Curious if anyone has or tried one. There's a knockoff version of the Solowheel and price dropped.

•Range: 10 miles per charge
•Speed: 0-10 MPH
•Recharge time: 1 hour
•Weighs just 26 pounds

I guess if a Segway doesn't make you look stupid enough.....

I used to ride a unicycle quite a bit in my youth (even rode a 6 footer occasionally) but I don't think I would get on that thing.

My llamas would need 2 of them per critter, and get way tired trying to learn the tricks to move them pasture to pasture.

That's funny right there.


I don't know I think I want one, but 10 miles per hour? Is there a turbo version?

Google glass, five-fingers, flannel, emo-pants, beard. Check, check, check, check and check! The uniform is complete, he's a bona-fide hipster!
