Is there anything about you and your daily activities that is not utterly impudent and antisocial?

Is there anything about you and your daily activities that is not utterly impudent and antisocial? Yes I do and surprisingly it has only even been a problem in the one instance otherwise it was handled politely by me complying with their request for me to step off it, I'd then ask if it was okay to continue shopping while using the trolley handle, and have always been told yes. I'm not pushing past the 80% beeps down Isle 3 my man. I don't consider that impudent as I'm not going any faster than walking pace, thereby not endangering people or property. I don't consider my actions antisocial either as there almost hasn't been a single day in my riding life when I haven't been stopped by pedestrians, cars or bikes to give them the 2 min spiel about "how fast does it go? How expensive it? How difficult is it" If anyone wants to talk to me when I'm stationary or slow moving I always inform and socialize. Just because you disagree with my actions doesn't make me antisocial. But I understand countries like England use the term to describe behavior that is frowned upon although not antisocial in nature, so I figure that's what you meant. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Surfling Posted November 10, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 10, 2020 (edited) INSIDE a store! Wow, that's just f....n amazing! If I see fit, I ride at a walking pace on busy sidewalks in my area. Tho, always aware that it can ruffle some feathers. Kids, dogs and blind corners are always unpredictable. Must be very different in Denmark. I would have a problem if anyone is riding anything on wheels inside a store here. Unless it's a necessity and they're relegated to a powered chair or such. There's a time and place for everything. And remember, you said this yourself....... "Remember that video of an euc bursting into an inferno? Now imagine not being able to disengage from such a situation in a timely manner." ...... Things can happen, bro. Let's not get technical....

RockyTop Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 I really don’t think it would be a good idea to ride indoors anywhere that children or very old people could be. I understand that we ride on bike paths and walk ways with children and the elderly. The parents of said children brought their kids to a bike path an should expect the have to watch out for them. They should not have to watch out for bicycles and EUCs in grocery stores. My EUC is legally a bicycle .... I do ride around people walking at a college, as do bicycles. That said hammer down in the adult book store! .. .... Just watch out for the elderly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xiiijojjo Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Only feathers I seem to have ruffled other than those of old white people in my 4 years of riding is people from this forum who think they can dictate my way of thinking and acting simply because we ride the same type of vehicle?! these people somehow turn me into the Danish ambassador for eucs which I never applied for. Guys in case this hasn't gone through your thick skulls I am an adult and a criminal I don't care about your feelings or the legalization of weed or eucs I'll keep doing both at exorbitant quantities and speeds respectfully. You guys do you and will keep doing me and as an adult I will deal with the consequences down the line be it fines, prison or death. And in case I die in a high speed crash or while going 5km/h in a super market I just hope my death negatively affects the people trying to control my actions and attitude towards riding. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surfling Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Well, I'm one for restoring harmony. My Daren attitude may have underestimated your skills and regards to safety. Heck, wasn't there a dentist doing full dental work riding a hoverboard in Alaska? How about posting a video of you riding inside the store? That should shed some light and clear the misunderstandings here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think anyone is trying to change how you ride or think (as if it were possible given your apparent outlook to others anyway). But if you post up how you ride around stores and other general anti-social acts then you gotta accept that some won't agree and will post in response. And just because an irritated member of the public doesn't actually say or gesture something to you doesn't mean you haven't pissed them off. Just something to think about. Personally I don't wait until someone tells me to do something like get off a wheel. I dismount wherever I think the general public would expect me to. I call it being socially aware. But as you say, maybe I have a thick skull, and in any event you don't care about our feelings on here anyway, so crack on. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin Boivin Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 Riding in stores is not a good idea. There's no need to go faster than a walking pace in stores, really so why not just use your trolly handle and walk it? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xiiijojjo Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 Have you read anything in this post? I don't go faster than walking pace in stores , also it is a bad idea for people not capable of sustainably riding at walking pace unlike myself. The reason i don't use the trolley is because i have the skill needed to ride in stores and on top of that i was only born with two arms and in a scenario where one is used for a trolley i would have to put down the shopping basket every time i pick up an item with my free hand, put it in the basket, bend over and pick up the basket again. However you are free to do that if you want to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redsnapper Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 Dnmrk snds like a grt place to live! how many times hv u done this? u hv nvr been asked to dismnt? any other folks rolling arnd inside ( other pev, sktboards etc)? When u hv to stop or cash out u keep one foot on pedal? Riding inside is very fun - i learned to ride after hours in my school. euc very nice way to get arnd large indoor spaces. But like Icarus i flew too close to the sun - i almost mowed down school principal going arnd a corner one day so they clipped my wings ☹️ Im at a new even bigger school now so I ride again. endless smooth floors - heaven!

Finn Bjerke Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 Are rollerskates, bikes and skateboards OK in that shop? If not maybe you should reconsider? Just my 2 cents have fun mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
