Segway of Central Florida - Segway Rider's Club of The Villages

WHAT WE DO

Segway Rider's Club of The Villages

About the Club

If you live in The Villages and love to ride Segways, then this group is for you! Over 100 members strong, this Segway riders group takes part in several rides or "outings" in the central Florida area each month as well as conducting fund raising events for Segs4Vets whenever they get a chance.

Many members don't even own a Segway but instead use units provided through the club at a nominal fee for the outings. After joining, all members must complete a rigorous Segway "boot camp". Once they received this training, they are eligible to take part in all club outings.

Monthly club meetings are held at the Hibiscus Recreation Center. Interested persons should contact Tom or Barbara Davis at 352-446-4984 or by email at segwayriders@hotmail.com
