Jets glide like a rock. With thousands of hours on segways with only a couple of failures I wonder how that compares to bicycles? I remember learning a bicycle with box of bandaids. Are we as a society going to fall for the if it ain't safe don't breath garbage? Far as I am concerned if a guy wants to strap a lawnmower with a prop on his arse while wearing rollerscates, fine. I will watch from a distance, might be funny.

But this its dorky, or design error kill it is not the inventive American Spirit that made this country great, it is the politicaly correct, why cant we all be the same, boring mass produced city school dork thought.

Live a little. If this thing did a hundred and fifty miles an hour, hey, now that would be FUN!

It's not PC, it's expecting a company to make the best product they can. If you're going to charge $5000 for something when the competition is all $500 or less you need to give Rolls Royce quality to match the price. So far no dice.

If it went 150 MPH it would at least do something better than the competition giving a justification for the price.
