          Whilst in college I did security guarding during my summer holidays and found myself alone overnight in a huge furniture factory that had gone bust. They had a load of battery powered ones that you could ride on. Had a great time doing my rounds on them.
          Had a few crashes though.

              Same for me back in the early working days, although my security colleagues and I would have races!
