Popular Post Mike Sacristan Posted February 16, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted February 16, 2019 Meanwhile... yesterday I took the Onewheel to work (7,5km) and back (7,8km). The weather was +5C and I had 65% battery left upon reaching work. Charged it up and rode from full and had 58% upon reaching home. For a machine that costs 2k that's a bit embarrassing. The trip there was wobbly as I haven't ridden in a while. The trip back was nice but at some times I wished I could go faster than 24km/h. Today i'm going to go for a ride with my wife. Me on the MSX and her on the OneWheel. As I want to keep things even I will force myself to ride seated. I watched this clip for motivation. I'll post a clip later on.

Did you fall twice or did you cleverly loop it? I went down twice, the second time because I thought I'd hurry to see if I could still catch the light. It was likely quite amusing for the waiting traffic. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smoother Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 (edited) Not all EUC videos include an EUC in them. I took this brief video (about 20 seconds) on my EUC trip to Cambridge UK today. The weather was great for Feb. Cambridge University colleges are famous for their rowing teams. There had been a regatta earlier (missed it) There were rowers everywhere, singles, twins, fours, eights, you name it. I had been shadowing these dudes for a while because they were really going for it. The simple joys of getting out in the sun to ride your EUC.

Popular Post Augus Posted February 17, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted February 17, 2019 The green ways in Spain are old railway routes reconverted into pedestrian and personal mobility vehicles paths. This is between Benicasim and Oropesa, in Castellón (Spain). 7 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Mike Sacristan Posted February 18, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted February 18, 2019 Yesterday's adventures. Monikas is getting a bit more used to riding. I practiced some more seated riding and it was a bit better as well. We went for a 21km ride. Her battery died when we were 300 meters from home. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of our local bike lanes are located between parking spaces and the sidewalks (pavement) I had to quit using them and ride on the open road instead. No one ever looks when crossing the bike lane. I have come close to hitting several people. I have also become more aware of how much women’s long hair keeps them from seeing to their side. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Girth Brooks Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Riding an EUC in Europe must be a much more restricted thing than here in the US. Outside of a few major US cities, I very highly doubt riding habits as being an issue. My experience is that I am an afterthought on mine. I have ridden mine on sidewalks, bike paths, and open streets. I never get much attention other than: "What is that thing?" In Tennessee, if you're not driving an auto then you are either invisible or just in the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry guys, it looks like I am riding around like a pirate but that Insta 360 camera creates a perspective distortion. Pavement looks much narrower that it actually is. I have been riding on that same path for over two year now, twice a day, and I get nothing but smiles from people. I never ever put anybody in danger especially mothers with babies in strollers. I was also very surprised when I looked at the video because in a lot of passages it seems like I am much closer to people or obstacles than I actually am. If you see the other video made with gopro on that same path you will see that the sidewalks are indeed much larger than they actually appear on the insta 360.
