First try at a video, so it’s pretty bad... Nice Funny, after watching a little bit I knew exactly what wheel you were riding just by the sound of its motor. I looked at your profile and sure enough, you were on the 18L. That whistling sound is very distinctive 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since getting the EXO Helmet I can hear a lot more of the sounds it makes, all I used to hear was wind noise. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I upgraded my XL to 2.0, I think mine got better but didn't go away like some people said theirs did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Mike Sacristan Posted March 12, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 12, 2020 Petra and I went for a cruise to Stockholm City yesterday to buy some Rockbros bike horns. Fun times. Although they don't really work as intended because people are mostly tuned to the bicycle bell sound. This was in the city though and people tend to have their heads up their asses most of the time. I also bought an alarm with a movement sensor which I will demo in a future clip. I have been doing a lot of riding on the 16X lately so the first turns on the MSX were a struggle. Felt like the wheel was just gonna flop over. After some riding it felt great though. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ..... Posted March 13, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 13, 2020 (edited) Short vid of me tackling a hill at 13 degrees. Of course my first week and attempt, I assumed the wheel didnt have enough juice. Now i realize that almost everything i think it can't do, boils down to rider ability. Im pretty sure that even AFTER I find the wheel's limits, it will be acceptable for many, many, many trips within them. Original music, flapping arms, poor posture, its got some goodies! Ooops, 60fps, wasted some valuable bandwidth for nothing, apologies. Edited March 13, 2020 by ShanesPlanet 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it took her ages to find a proper winter riding suit but now she is finally happy. Except it was a tiny bit small so she ordered an extra one a size up. Definitely Bond girl I would say. Wait until the summer. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciate the concern, but holy crap Its like a broken record around here. I have TONS of gear protection here for when i CHOOSE to wear it. Hearing people keep harping on the obvious is doing the exact opposite of making me choose to wear it. Again, thanks for your concern, but how about just waiting for a serious injury and giving me a smug 'i told you so' instead? Fwiw, Im also aware that smoking will kill me. How's those motorcycle laws in Kansas? I remember not having to wear a helmet on my very first street motorcycle (600 gsx) out there. Take care!

How's those motorcycle laws in Kansas? I remember not having to wear a helmet on my very first street motorcycle (600 gsx) out there. Take care! Ask yourself how old you were when you started doing the opposite of what people told you to do. I'm not trying to be nasty, but I suspect you'll find this is a pattern that started when you were quite young (we all have things like this, by the way, so don't take it personally). What's really powerful for us to do as adults is look at why we react in the way we do. Particularly in situations where it causes us to take actions against our own self interest. Theories for cognitive development don't show us erasing the younger stages. We add layers of mental capacity on top of the previous ones. This means that many of our younger age behaviors persist in to adulthood. You may be a 40+ year old man, but you're reacting and speaking from the perspective of a much younger you. "I'm going to do the opposite of what you tell me to do" is a not the response of an empowered adult. It's a self dis-empowering response. You can chose to react badly to what I'm saying. That's fine. Or you could use your considerable cognitive powers (System 2 - deliberative thinking) to over-ride your reflex reaction (System 1 - reflexive thinking).
