Hold my Red Bull - it’s Dawn’s new, faster-than-ever-ride-to-be! It’ll give Marty something to engineer while his leg is knitting itself back together!

(starting to wonder if that ship ablaze in the North Sea came via the Begode factory!)

S22Pro crash broken ankle and knee.

Reasons:

1  too soft terain?

2 rider  fail?

3 S22 weak braking?

4 or just bad time and place :-(

Has anyone else seen the video of a Tesla going up doing the rounds today? Too large a file to upload here, but man, makes ‘Stride’s effort with the S 20 look like a 20 second sparkler!

That didn’t look too difficult to achieve 😳

I think ankle is out of the shoe, not in the shoe, then no protection.

Front pad is near the pedal, and the small shoe. When a foot is on the ground it can't escape.

The reason why I now use motocross boots for off roading. Yes they are bulky, stiff and very uncomfortable at first, not to mention looking like Frankenstein while trying to walk in them, but they do eventually break-in.  The motorcycle touring boots are for street rides and running errands. :D

That was an unexpected ending, wow. Glad everyone is ok. It's a good video for the importance of properly securing your chin strap. Definitely an interesting watch. Thanks for sharing.

Must be particularly galling to have gone to the effort of buying and wearing a helmet only to watch it tragically depart the scene in the one second before it is most needed !

I imagine it's an easy thing to forget if you are constantly taking your helmet on and off in all that heat... anyway, glad he's alright, and seemed relatively unphased by the whole experience...

Remember the S20 S22 torque testing motors?  THIS is the ultimate method to "torque test" the old S20 motors (just after 3:15 in this vid). I put the pins in it myself, knobby, kickstand, seat, etc. After this overtorque cutout (repeatedly same spot), I believe the pins with original glue worked. This is the original S20 used by AlienRides Channel demo and auctioned to benefit the Ukrainians escaping the war zone.

I am sorry for this completely OT message, but while reading about how problematic it is for beginners to mount and ride, the word Tricky got glued to my mind.  Therefore this.  So sorry - but smiling :lol:
