Yes they did.
It was a good tour and accomplished what they wanted. For the next half hour I really, REALLY wanted to buy a segway until I realized that there was nothing I could do with it I couldn't do with the bicycle I already own.

DW and I actually went to the Segway dealership after we got back! Still thinking about getting a couple! We are going to try the tour at DCA also, when we get a chance. You are right about the bicycle, and you get a bit more expercise than a Segway!!

Exactly. And it costs less.
I'm hoping to do the Fort Wilderness tour next time I make it back to WDW though.

Didn't know they had one there! Will have to check that out!! We also noticed that our legs would start to cramp up a bit, unlike walking!!

Yes, it also made me want to buy new shoes with better arch supports.

Well, careful saying that. I had a bicycle once, was a hand-me-down from my dad. He had taken it on Cycle Oregon a couple times, and was an avid rider. When he upgraded and got a new one, he gave it to me. The one he gave me had been about $4,000 new. Again, he got rid of it to upgrade it.
Very light, strong bike. You could lift it with a pinkie.
My opinions are mine and mine only. If my opinions are the opinion of others who happen to share whatever my crazy views may be, then fine, but it's not because I represent them in having my opinions. Got it?
