America at 10 MPH
The screenshotU.S. has a long tradition of daring adventurers and historic firsts. From Lewis and Clark's opening of the West to Neil Armstrong's famous step on the moon, Americans seek the excitement of exploration. Today marks another milestone in that endeavor. It's day one of a unique journey -- the first solo attempt to cross America on a Segway. Yes, one man will ride the human transporter at a grueling 10 mph for the entire transcontinental journey. He and a crew depart Seattle for Boston in a courageous effort to capture "a sense of America and today's American dream." Along the 4,700 miles, they'll document their travels with daily video and audio updates. Want to meet this ambitious crew? They'd love to "talk with you, have dinner, party it up, and even crash with you." Who knows? You might end up on the site or in the documentary, chatting up America's next great explorer.
