@Mantraguy that sounds interesting. I have a new v11 that should be arriving tomorrow (after a 4 month wait - ah the sadness when you sell your last wheel and your new one hasn't come yet) and I would love to meetup and do a longer ride. I am down in Victoria so maybe the Cowichan Valley Trail? https://www.cvrd.ca/121/Cowichan-Valley-Trail up towards you? I will probably be rain-phobic for a while so we will have to time the day.

I have nothing new to share sadly. The V11 that I ordered is on the slowest boat ever but might be here by mid september. I hope the rest of the group has had a good summer riding. See you all in the fall.

@kerberos, I hope you found an alternative charger. I never thought about buying a backup charger before, that is an unexpected problem. Anyways, I am not on the forums much as I am waiting for the back-ordered V11 to come in (ah, it is tough to be patient). I will check back in later in the month to see what is going on in the forums.

@Kerberos, glad to hear that you weren't hurt in the incident. I didnt take the v10f off a curb while I owned it (I am too old/too chicken?) but dont think I would have thought that a pedal would break. I ordered a V11 so when it comes in (sometime this month?) I will post and try to get a ride together. Thanks to everyone who gave me advice on the next wheel purchase. I decided to go with VanEuc after checking in first with Ride the Glide. Good to support local(ish) businesses if we can to keep the sport moving forward. Hope you are all out enjoying the weekend.

@all, thanks for sharing the info with Kerberos and others on what to look for when buying a used wheel and how to check the battery. I am the one selling the wheel and met with him yesterday to give him a demo of it. I used the (inmotion) app for the first time(funny after a year of ownership) and grabbed the diagnostic info from it. Funny, as a guy in tech, I never felt the need to get the app. Just riding is that much fun. My plan is to buy the v11. I am checking with mike at ride the glide to see if they are ordering more in.If they are not, who in canada would you order from? Do any sellers offer extended warranties that are worth buying?

@Mike B in Victoria it was good to meet you on Sunday. I filled up my tire with air when I got home. Seems fine after all. I was looking through the forums and I think you are a reseller? Are you from Ride the glide?

Hi local victoria riders (or potential riders) I am thinking about upgrading my wheel (to a V11) and wanted to see if there was any local interest from a board member before I post it up to UsedVictoria or Kijiji. I am not going to post it into the For Sale forum as I don't want the hassle of shipping it if I can avoid it. Anyways, it is a V10f. I am the second owner having bought it from @TonyGrayCanada (thanks again Tony, great wheel). The wheel is in good shape as it has always been ridden with a cover (although the pedals are a bit scraped up from two people learning to ride on it). I am asking $1000 which is a about half the price of a the wheel new (when you add GST and PST). Anyways, if you see this and are interested, drop me an email to euc@daveneufeld.com. Thanks Dave

Thanks for letting the group know that ride the glide is selling locally again. I may need to upgrade my v10f to a v11 in the spring and it's good to see somewhere local to purchase it. Thanks to all for sharing your stories. They are fun to read.

Dave here in Victoria- on a used (but awesome) V10f Eucs work great in this town. I do 30-40 minutes rides just for fun (no need to commute right now with Covid going on).

@TonyGrayCanada congrats on the new wheel.

Just an update. I am now riding a V10f - thanks again to @TonyGrayCanada for getting me started, I am looking forward to hearing about your new KS16x. My first short ride (straight line ) completed completed yesterday, but boy are my inner shins bruised. Great fun. I will keep checking in periodically in the forum for the posts from others locally. See you soon.

@TonyGrayCanada Congrats on the purchase. I look forward to riding with you in the future

@TonyGrayCanada thanks for offering to let me have a go on your wheel. I will drop you a private message and share my phone number with you so we can text and see if we can arrange a time that works for you.

@TonyGrayCanada, if you come onto the forums, please reach out. I am curious about your experience with your wheel (a wheel from inmotion) and where/how you bought it. @Rywokast - thanks for your comment above. I will try to connect with Tony here on the forum. When I am approved to send private messages, I will share my local contact info with you.
