One thing that's interesting about it, is people who saw you riding it wouldn't know if it was from the future or the past. Maybe it's from an alternate timeline where we had flying cars in the 50's. Or maybe this is secret WW2 technology that has been unearthed, and you got your hands on one. When I'm riding my wheel, the reaction I get the most from people is confusion. "What the heck IS that?" is written on their faces. Otherwise I get a few thumbs up or "So Cool!" from kids. If you ride that wheel around they are going to be even more confused. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you ride that wheel around they are going to be even more confused. You totally get it. Yes, quite a contrast to my Star Wars Imperial-inspired, totally sleek MSX. At the "vintage" speeds of the V2, I might start having conversations with people again instead of flying by... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Marty Backe Posted September 5, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted September 5, 2019 (edited) Had a nice ride with some OneWheeler's. Here we are, at sunset, on the Marina del Rey Jetty These guys aren't big into any kind of safety gear. The guy holding up his hands has bloody road rash because of more than one fall. They seem to consider road rash some kind of Badge of Honor Edited September 5, 2019 by Marty Backe 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Marty Backe Posted September 5, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted September 5, 2019 Riding the Nikola at dusk on the beach near Santa Monica California. I like the juxtaposition of the Nikola ring lights with the carnival lights of the Santa Monica Pier in the background. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha ha I was about 18 Mike's short of 9000 while riding along the Charles River, a kind of Ventura beach ride experience. A 'side trail' near the Northeastern University boat house used by joggers had caught my attention. I decided to try it and found the riverside path to be full of exposed tree roots from high water erosion(?) with the river a few feet away. One root got the best of me and into the grass I was pitched. It was so slow that Monster just fell over rather than 'dance'. The grass stains washed out in the laundry and I went on to reach my 9000 mile goal. Stretched upper arm tendons are a bit sore. Yesterday I went to Marblehead (smooth ride) and made a 360 photo sphere. https://kuula.co/post/7qZzR The cluster of white marks (dots/slashes) seen off shore are probably small sailboats in a race or a class.
