An end-weighted vehicle comprising a framework having opposing ends and a wheel mounted to one of the ends for rotation and defining a footprint, and a weight supported by the framework proximate the wheel so as not to interfere with the rotation of the wheel, wherein a)the weight is sufficiently heavy and sufficiently distributed proximate the wheel so that the framework is forced to reside in an inclined position with the other of the ends positioned above a supporting surface when the wheel is positioned against the supporting surface, and b)the footprint is of a size sufficient to support and maintain the framework in the inclined condition.
