They're either not a thing here yet, or I'm getting old and out of touch.
Are we really that lazy? What is wrong with walking? I'm starting to feel more and more like Wall-E (Image removed from quote.)

Hang on, Wall-E didn't walk anywhere either. I do take your point though, we do seem to be simultaneously telling people they need to keep fit and also inventing ways to not have to put any effort into getting places. I used to work in a large gym and it always made me laugh that people would fight to park as near the doors as possible so as they didn't have to walk and extra 20m in order to go exercising.
I thought the same thing when people started saying hover boards were available and becoming common. I was also very disappointed to see what they really were.I'm not sure how useful one of these types of hover boards would be, but it could be interesting to try out.I like the convenience of it. You can simply pick it up, toss it in a bag and throw it over your shoulder and go wherever you want to go, versus a bicycle that has to be locked up and you have to go back to.Def
