Great entries. I felt JasonC's "Byproducts of a Playstation Generation" really nailed it. A true sign of the times IMO.

Thanks everybody. If I would have had a video of all those Segways rolling into Grant Park at the fountain I know you all would have tipped over laughing: people spinning around in circles, trying to pop wheelies, zipping across the plaza, etc. and no one listening to the guide cracked me up, so the title was apropos. :)

I'll ponder the new challenge and post up once I get to work. And BTW, congrats to the HM's as well.

I think I will! I have a pic on my home computer that will suit the new challenge theme well.

How do you pop a wheelie when you have 2 parallel wheels? Lean it up on one side?? :confused:

And yes, Jason's shot was quite good too. It was a tough decision, but I see he posted it up on another contest. Good luck, Jason!

There was a kid who keep leaning wayyyyyy back and then he'd goose the thottle as though he were "TRYING" to pop a wheelie. It's a Segway - I don't know how you'd do it either. Doesn't mean he wasn't putting forth the proper effort. :lol:
