Well, that doesn't sound fun at all. I'd still give it a spin, though. Just to see what it's all about.

I hate the way it looks. Aside from that, it doesn't sound fun. Yuck!

I agree with Sash Walker; "fugly" only begins to describe its looks. Otherwise, I wonder how well it will corner, & if the gyro will interfere with that.

It does look a whole lot of Japanese anime, but I'd still give it a go if for nothing but fun.

We already have gyroscopic "power" in the rotating wheels.
Adding another sounds like it might actually be difficult to turn.

Gonna pass. Not even if it were free would I have any interest in that thing.

I hear they have these machines now that balance completely for the operator under most if not all conditions.

They're called cars.

Christopher Snow I thought they were horses. Or, feet.

I've seen some people who haven't upgraded to the self balancing feet yet.

😀 Now...THIS works a little better...at least your head's out in the wind.... They do need to work on the looks though....make it look less like a scooter and more like a meaty, beefy, muscular, man toy ....you know? ....a real bike 😊😊😊😊

So, I asked Andrew Tamm, who filled my Stream with a hundred (sarcasm there) animated gifs and cat pictures to remove me from whatever Circle he has me in where he posts the animated gifs and cat pictures. It was either that or unfollow him and I didn't see any reason to unfollow him. Me asking https://plus.google.com/112885755521259735422/posts/78dwnvvgh4p <==edited to add the correct link Then he plusses me onto Public posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/EuuR1tnU3vJ https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/8r6Grcm2Jpj https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/74PgSu6iL2s Then one of his friends (or Circlers) starts plussing me into posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/107120198886093172821/posts/gRW9JhWLs5T Don't get me wrong, I'm all about sarcasm and messing with people, but this seems sort of childish to me.

I'm shutting down Google+ for the night and quite possibly for the weekend. Why? This stupid #gifwars thing people are so proud of. This Adam Black guy said he doesn't like gifs and now everyone is mass trolling him. Having been mass trolled like this I can relate to him easily enough. Have an opinion and the collective might of Google+'s lower class denizens jump on a bandwagon. I just saw a post where someone wanted to jump on board and had to get clarification she was tagging the proper Adam Black. She wasn't even connected to him ! Nor was she a part of the original discussion. She just wanted to follow the herd. When I called her out of it she claimed, "one gif doesn't make a troll." Perhaps not, but she's contributing to a larger troll effort. One straw doesn't break the camel's back, but thousands will. So, tonight, Google+ disgusts me. It probably will tomorrow as well. And possibly Sunday. I gave up Google+ for two months this spring
