I was shocked, I thought me and my roommate were the only ones with EUC’s. The guy almost didn’t turn around after I called him out to chat. I had to zoom up and catch him. Turns out he’s real shy and a huge nerd, completely incompatible with my personality. He told me he had seen me flying around on one and he thought it was the coolest thing so he went and researched them and bought one. Even though I thought he was really weird we still went riding together, just kept our conversations closely around EUC’s and “ewheels”. I won’t ever do anything non EUC related with him, but that’s why you have friends for different things. Bro. I cut that fool off, and that conversation. That's done and dead.

Popular Post Darrell Wesh Posted December 22, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted December 22, 2018 Virginia Tech. Blacksburg VA. pretty small town, with speed limits of 25-35mph so I’m always on the streets with my MSX and Ks18s. Back home in VA Beach the speed limits are like 45mph lowest lol with zero bike lanes. I find it boring to have to restrict my 18” wheels to the sidewalks. That’s why I have the Dualtron Thunder 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last semester he was riding a KS18AY. One of my older wheels, but my oldest son (University of Maryland College Park) commutes to and around campus daily on an 18L, and I just bought an 18XL for myself. So now he complaining about the "old wheel" he is riding down in Charlottesville. So, I am considering getting him an 18L also; we'll see. My lil sis doesn't ride. I just thought that it would cool to mention that I got fam in your area 👍 Edited December 22, 2018 by Lutalo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such is our love for EUC’s that creates an immediate and undissolvable bond. Maybe, but calling Lutalo a low IQ moron just because he doesn't like riding in cold weather wasn't particularly endearing. I have friends like that. When we meet up, I just start off by busting them in the face for all the stupid shit they said on social media since the last time we met up. After that, we get along fine and dandy. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a few videos of him around performing some pretty amazing feats of balance. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
