• Stowe Boyd rides one of these

  • Jan'2009: I asked him whether he uses it in downtown San Francisco, whether it would be usable in New York City, etc. He said: he rides it on Side Walk, not street; you couldn't ride it through Time Square, but most blocks at most times are no problem; he finds it 5x faster than Walking; he has a Kryptonite lock to lock it to parking meters.
