I went to a team building day at Slaley Hall with the guys from work.

It was actually really good fun, quad bikes, clay pigeon shooting, blind driving, etc...

But, by far the best activity of all was this...

Hope you all enjoyed it. We did similar here a few years ago. Now 2 of my 'team' have been made redundant. Better not do another one lol.

Dude! It's a fricking Segway!!!! :D

I've wanted to have a go on one since before they even existed (no exaggeration, I was a video about them when they were still in 3D CAD mode).

It was awesome!

Used to be near where my parents lived and I grew up, did a GCSE ICT case study on the booking system for the rooms :lol:

Nice!

That seemed like a lot of body armour for a Segway. It's health and safety gone mad I tell yah!

We asked them about that.

For insurance purposes they have to follow the manufacturers guidelines.

On a Segway it says that you have to wear gloves, helmet, back protection and shin/knee guards. So the insurance company at the adventure centre said the same thing. With the quad bikes the manufacturer says you have to wear helmet, gloves, and overalls so that's what the insurance company said too :D

Was awesome though! I'd love to get one!
