EUC Addict Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 (edited) What is the longest ride you've done on your EUC in one day? As of May 17, my longest ride was 138 miles. My route was the Santa Ana River Trail, beginning in San Bernardino CA, down to Huntington Beach and back. I rode with six other guys. Could have done with two charges, but didn't charge enough on the first charge. I know there has got to be some of you out there that have ridden longer. UPDATE: Here is a short summary video of my ride with Relive map at the end Edited May 25, 2020 by shwinston Add video of ride. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waulnut Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 For me, only 30 miles. Angel stadium to HB and back. Same route only shorter 😅 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was expecting more people to have posted mileage over a 100. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to the planned route it will be 1999 km, but in practice it always comes out a bit more. I estimate that I will end up riding for about 2200 - 2300 km. Eight days' ride, one day's rest and another seven days' ride. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was expecting more people to have posted mileage over a 100. There are numerous people that are not present on our forum that are regularly going over 100 miles at once (of course, with charging in the middle). Just take a look at the "Top Riders" stats on EUC World main page ("Globe trotter" section). Looks like French riders especially love to ride for long distances, just like I do And of course, there is @Archee Jan Bloch with his absolutely epic, 317 mile trip (although not within 24 hours, but still in very demanding and exhausting "ride-sleep-repeat" regime). So I think that long-distance EUC riding is more popular among EUC riders around the world. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanted to do 500 mi but that seems impossible so I took 500 km, still good. in fact this month I owe the most I ever did and if I take the 2 or 3 times the app crashed, I have done over 1700 miles in last 30 days or so 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Sandvig Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Archee - I have been following your epic rides and suddenly you stopped posting here and on euc.world. I hope that you are OK. Chris 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had only 3 30 min breaks while eating. And when switching the wheels for charge ) You can check the full video of it here: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mangorides Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 Love the dedication to respond to a post 2 years later and show how far we have came!!
