That's good to hear, sounds like a very cool project. I could see this living up to at least some of the hype that the original Segways received.

The biggest challenge will probably be to keep people from screwing with the bikes, of course. :( An unoccupied bicycle cruising down the street or sidewalk will fire all sorts of mischievous neurons that onlookers didn't even know they had.

Definitely, will be interesting to test. We have several cameras onboard so that we can see what happened but an equal concern with vandalism is how people feel about being watched. We want to avoid feeling like your neighborhood is suddenly a panopticon. Still unsolved.
