Does this belong to anyone on Segway Chat or does anyone know who's it is? I found the web site for the company that makes them I just would like to find out how the owner likes using it with a HT.[8]

I think that the "chariot" is meant to be pulled by a bicycle....interesting if one could hook it up to a segway..hmmmmmmm

Chapinville,
I saw the carrier in question used at SegFest, and it seemed to be one of the safer ways of transporting children behind your "transporter" -- I would only use it with the i-series if I was going to use it, though--not with the upcoming p-series.
Who makes them, BTW? I see the "chariot" emblem on it, but is that the company name? I'd love to find one and check it out!

I talked to the couple using the chariot, we were swapping notes with my trailer
I think she was Reina who was giving the lessons for training ambassadors from LLC
I know for sure that she does work for LLC and it works great. She and her husband stayed at Printers Row. I was impressed how well it worked, It gave him complete mobility and ease to get off and on the Segway, and he unhooked himself very quickley when he needed to
They said the company that sells it also has many options such as snow skies. They bought the option of extended poles for bicycle use and really did no alterations
I hope this helps

thanks all. I did find the web page for them... http://www.chariotcarriers.com .... and they do offer alot of options. I was just curios how well it worked. Does is start and stop well with it's weight being placed at my mid-section with me trying to transfer my weight fore and aft? It does seem safer as fas as if I was to come off my HT and the footpad was to stick down (Like it does quite frequently) I don't have to worry about my little girl riding off down the street without me! I am just looking for as much info as possible... they don't have a local distributor in my area and no doubt they are expensive.[8]

So it goes around the waist of the HT driver?? Looks like it would work great.
