Sorry I missed this one, was it a good time? I was planning to go but my waterpump blew up on me on Saturday at around 5 PM. I would really like to make the next one :)

There was not that many people at this one. The Blue Angels overhead caused a lot of road closures and some were not able to make it. Also, having it in the park really limited the amount of boosted board people could join in. They can't navigate gravel/dirt roads as easily.

If I see another posting, I'll put it up. I think I should also make just one topic rather than a new one each week. It might be better that way people can follow it and watch for updates or set an email notification.

I got a Dualtron 2 ex from ewheels recently and would like to attend the next meet up. Feel free to add my name to the list.

Another Dualtron user!!!!! Woot. Hey if you need any help with your maintenance or have any problems. Just message me, I check the forums most days, and have all the tools/items to take apart and repair most issues.

No problems yet. I have about 250 miles on it and the only thing I have done is put on wider handlebars to make it more comfortable.

Come on over to the Dualtron thread. There is something new I am about to post.

Al lot of people don't realise that you can still ride an EUC when it has a blown water pump... Provided you stay under 15 mph the water pressure doesn't get high enough to trigger the pump...   :blink1:

Hey guys,

I was looking into this because I saw @kasenutty posted and Seattle is only 3 hours away. Anyway, anyone is welcome to our Portland Rides on Fridays 7:30 roll out time from OMSI. It's usually 20-28 people strong. If you come on a Saturday then we can usually string together about 7-10 people on short notice same on Sunday. Anyway, looking forward to maybe rolling with you up there or down here.

I'm not sure how well a 3 hour car drive would sit with people that are hardly able to drive 10 minutes to a park 10 miles away. But thank you for the offer @outcast00096

My bad. I was only saying I was checking if there was a ride in Seattle because I'd come up for it and if you happened to be in Portland then you could ride with us. I did not intend to say drive out to us. Just extended an olive branch.

Sorry for misunderstanding. Yes for sure, I'll include you in any events that may pop up.

Let's kick of September with a group ride! We will meet outside of Motion Boardshop at 6pm and ride at 6:30pm sharp. We will shred the Burke Gillman! We will stop and charge somewhere that has power, snacks, and refreshments!
We may have guests up visiting so let's be good hosts! 
Bring lights as it will get darker out as we move in to fall... Also, dress accordingly as it could be cool in the evening.
Stop in motion and checkout their shop and maybe buy stuff ?
Remember, you have a beautiful mellon, so keep it that way and always wear a helmet!!

Had a great time with all the skaters and Esper! 

It was nice meeting you! There are a bunch of others up here in the area that still want to meet up for rides that I haven't even met yet. The Seattle numbers are above 60 I'm sure. It would be nice if we could do a big semi-annual event that gathered all or most of the area riders. I'll think about organizing one with other people and maybe we can make it a big enough event that people from out of state will join in.

I'm going to try to make this... I wanted to be at the one last week but I literally had my father in law ask me to go to lunch with him an hour before it got posted in the time frame. I'll see if I can make the time to come out. Be nice to meet other riders out there. Oh, hey. You have Levi in the picture for this event. He's the leader of the Eboard group in Portland. I know him.
