Segway of Oakland Rental Fleet Going to Burning Man 2013
Segway of Oakland has one of the largest rental fleets and rents Segway PTs throughout California and the USA for major events. The Burning Man event near Reno Nevada is an eccentric arts festival that is known for all kinds of bizarre and wild activity.
"I think that Burning Man and the Segway PT go together perfect because they are both pretty different but you just got to love them," said Darren Romar from Segway of Oakland.
The Segway PT is the world's first self balancing vehicle and by now practically everybody knows what a Segway PT is. With the Segway PT, you have almost no footprint and it's an environmentally friendly machine with no emissions. The Segway Company and their dealers such as Segway of Oakland have had some rough sports marketing the machine, but the Segway PT hangs in there and is already an iconic machine.
Many people think that Burning Man is a big group of idiots out on the desert doing drugs and running around naked. But no. Burning man is not about that at all. We all know now that Burning Man is an Arts Festival. In fact all that running around naked and doing drug stuff is a little over-blown. Just check out this recent, more realistic, perspective from USA Today / Reno Gazette article by Molly Moser that explains some of the reasons that this festival has become a powerful driver in the Arts World and is perhaps misunderstood by the general public http://www.usatoday.com/story/travel/destinations/2013/08/19/burning-man-festival-reno-public-art/2671427/.
Segway of Oakland rents Segway PT's to all kinds of events, and with both service and sales, Segway of Oakland has shown thousands of people why the Segway PT is so useful at large public venues. "No other vehicle allows you to ride in a standing position while maintaining great control and maneuverability. Nothing beats it in a crowd, and we'll rent to almost anybody that really wants to use a Segway PT," said Rich Espinoza from Segway of Oakland.
With rentals as well as new and used units available, Segway of Oakland brings more options for consumers off all kinds. Some of the best deals on used Segways come at the end of the season around October first, and many of the Segway renters from Buring Man become Segway owners once they find out how useful and fun the Segway PT really is.
That is why the Segway PT hangs in there. Once you try a Segway PT and experience the world's most efficient vehicle with the smallest footprint, you'll see why this vehicle is so unique. Even calling the Segway PT a vehicle is a little strange because the Segway PT is so unique. Nothing else is like the Segway PT, and that is why it may be hard to get used to but once you see the real value, it isn't so bad.

New Segway Event Rentals Offered Throughout the Bay Area by Segway of Oakland
Segway of Oakland has once again purchased more rental units for an
expanded rental fleet in Northern California. They now offer rentals
with delivery and pick up through Northern California. Segway of Oakland
has the most extensive rental fleet and most experienced training
personnel for your company's events and retreat adventures with the
exciting Segway i2 and x2. If you want the best event available for your
organization, event rentals are a unique activity that is simply
unmatched by anything else.
The Segway is unique and tons of fun. "We offer Segways and personnel and we can potentially train up to a hundred people or more at event and offer short rides and lessons so anybody that wants to can learn to ride a Segway", said Darren Romar, co-owner of Segway of Oakland.
A Segway event or team-builder is an event that nobody will ever forget. "With 5 Segways and five personnel, we can handle typical groups, and we can also offer hands on indoor training at the same time. These lessons at events are not as extensive as with our Lessons and Tours here in Oakland, but what we do is use a highly controlled area and method so that participants can all learn the basics and try it out within a very short period of time," said Romar.
"We get people up and going in minutes, and by offering short five to ten minute sessions, we can literally handle groups with hundred of members. This is the best way for a lot of people to learn and figure out the basics and get an introduction to the Segway" continued Romar.
The Segway is a unique two wheeled scooter that operates like no other vehicle in the world. It has no steering wheel or brakes, yet it accelerates and stops on a dime. The Segway is a ton of fun. Some people think it feels like skiing over the pavement. "It glides the way I ski", said one participant.
Yet a Segway is way easier than skiing or surfing or anything else like that. In fact the Segway is so intuitive that you can learn the basic functions and get moving within a couple minutes. Although the Segway feels very unstable at first, once you have a few seconds to understand the operation, you'll find it is the most intuitive vehicle to operate that there is. Simply put, the Segway is really easy to ride.
Most importantly is that your group will remember this event like no other. "We've done graduation parties, retirement parties, company picnics, company events, youth events, scouts, organizational events, luncheons, you name it. Segways are something really special that you just can match with anything else." added Romar.
For more than the same old mundane stuff, try Segway Events with Segway of Oakland. This is the most efficient way to get a group up and going with a fun activity, and it can even be done indoors. It is a highly controlled process and unlike a long several mile tour, it is done in a closed area where people learn and ride with the group and take turns.
It works out great for organizational or company parties. If you want to find out more, call 1-888-8SEGWAY.

Segway of Oakland Introduces New Made To Order Segway PT’s (i2 or x2)
Segway of Oakland (http://www.segwayofoakland.com, http://www.bayareasegway.com )
introduces free delivery on new Segways anywhere in the Bay Area. Now
customers can order a brand new Segway according to any individual
specifications, and Segway of Oakland will deliver it for anywhere in
the San Francisco Bay Area.
These brand new units come fresh off the assembly line, and we can build them to any standard specifications. Check out http://www.segway.com for more information.
The Segway PT is the world’s only self balancing vehicle. The Segway has been a niche market product, but it has continued consistent growth in the Bay Area and can now be found in many different circumstances. They are popular with security companies, police, RV owners, boat owners, and in gated communities. Schools and hospitals use them, and many people with mobility difficulties have found that the Segway is the way to go to get around.
Since a Segway is so unique, individualized instruction is needed to really get a good feel for the workings of the machine. That’s why with Segway of Oakland and Bay Area’s Segway’s offer special specialized training with expert staff. “We train people on the spot which gets the customer going in the right direction”, said Romar.
Now Segway is becoming recognized as a very efficient and super small vehicle that is unique with its own range of uses. And it uses efficient electrical power, so with its efficiency and its small size it is the ultimate green machine.
Nothing handles like a Segway and its unique attributes make it best in tight locations that require a smaller vehicle. Its footprint is much smaller than a bike, but it can cover a lot more ground than a bike with less effort because it is a powered vehicle. Unlike a bike, the Segway is not an exercise machine. However, contrary to popular belief the Segway does require some physical effort, and it is not as relaxing as car. It takes some balance and more importantly you have to stand straight. In fact, it forces you to stand straight.
Customers can call Bay Area Segway at 1-888-8SEGWAY to learn about the many of the options available. The Segway comes with various packages and there are two base models to choose from. Popular packages include the commuter and adventure packages. “We build them to any specifications the customer wants”, said Darren Romar from Segway of Oakland.
Please call Segway of Oakland at (510)832-2429 or toll free at 1-888-8-SEGWAY with any further questions.

Segway of Oakland Introduces New Custom Built TV Segway
Segway of Oakland, the leader in customized Segway PT projects, is
proud to introduce an all new custom designed Segway model with extra
large vertical mount video monitor built into the front frame of the
unit. This is a sophisticated “advertising Segway” that uses the Segway
platform for a unique on-site demo, production, or presentation.
The Segway PT is the world’s first self-balancing vehicle. It is commonly used for advertising or marketing at events or other promotions. Many Segway PT’s have been built that have fancy custom ad shield with custom vinyl graphic designs. Using the Segway as a platform, many different types of advertising and marketing campaigns have been executed from events or conventions for company ambassadors to TV commercials and production, the Segway PT has been used extensively by many different companies.
“The custom TV-mounted Segway from Segway of Oakland brings that to a whole new level”, said Darren Romar from Segway of Oakland. He continued, “this unit has an integrated monitor that is fully built into the frame of the Segway. It also has a keyboard control panel inside of the unit so the user can see what is displayed on the monitor.
The TV Segway is a custom designed unit that can be used for special and unique marketing concepts. In the initial design, the front screen displays company logos or films, or it can mimic the look of a product or service. The TV Segway can play different digital clips or movies, and since it is essentially the paneling of the Segway itself, it can also be used to show graphics or color so that it simply looks almost like an illuminated vinyl graphic on the front of the unit.
“We’ve custom built variations of the TV Segway and companies have many different ways that they use it. It’s a mobile video screen, but it’s a heck of a lot more than that because it goes with the person riding it”, said Romar.
“Note that these custom built Segways are built project by project for the application prescribed by the customer. These are not stock Segways and they are generally purchased by companies or organizations for brand marketing and other advertising applications” he said.
The unit can therefore be built to customer specifications and the capabilities of the video and computer and not limited other than by what is reasonable for the application. The units require special training and contracts, but the video and computer units are simply built onto a regular Segway PT with a special aluminum fabricated frame. The effect is very unique, and it definitely draws attention.
“We have a lot of inquiries about these, but we just came out with them a month ago and the time and effort and cost required needs to really be something the customer is interested in”, said Romar. “There is significant amount of custom CNC’d parts and some aluminum welding that goes into these fabricated machines, as well as the equipment being used for the advertising (example: monitor, computer, and battery power” he continued.
The mobile display screen is very large and can be adapted for use at events or grand openings, TV commercials, conventions, or other brand marketing productions. The elaborate work involved in these unit results in something so unique it guarantees that people take notice.
The Segway PT moves like no other machine, and that combined with the custom electronics makes this machine very different. Nothing has the maneuverability of the Segway PT. With training and careful riding the TV Segway can be maneuvered like nothing else that can also show a full length production series of movies.
Those interested in the custom built TV Segway and it’s potential marketing, advertising, and presentation opportunities and applications contact Steve or Darren at 1-888-8SEGWAY or 510-832-2429.
