meepmeepmayer Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 @Bob Eisenman You're riding again! Hope your shoulder is getting better! I think of all the injuries reported here (in your case hidden really well in offtopic threads) yours were the worst Just don't fall again, especially now Do you have hard protectors for the heels of your hands (and possibly the wrists), I only see the cloth gloves... @kasenutty Did he give it back? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post meepmeepmayer Posted June 3, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted June 3, 2017 (edited) Some pictures from today's mountain ride. The cool thing about the first 2 pictures (although you can't see it) is that the ride started at 520 m altitude (1700 ft for the Hamburger people) and this is along a ridge at about 1100 m (3600 ft) with the highest point of the route being 1200 m (4000 ft) previously. The ACM did a 680 m altitude climb, which is quite a lot (also quite steep sometimes). The entire thing was a bit of a mountain/incline/max current test (more about that at a later date). Two more pictures from the way down. This is at about 950 m. The flat bottom land is the starting height, the peak in the last picture is roughly the max altitude (though not part of the route, just for comparison). Really hard to show altitudes and inclines in pictures, but it's usually more than it looks. You can look at the mountain in the last picture to get an idea too.

After watching Radislav's trick video jump sequence where he wore elbow guards I decided to use them as well. Three consecutive days of rain are predicted starting Sunday night. My PT asked Friday if I'd been out riding and the thought set in. Great weather, takin it slow, bending the knees at bumps, etc. Just before returning a driver waiting for a light said 'keep rolling'!? Thanks...good riding to you too.? A receptionist at the small PT clinic is from the Ukraine. Maybe the church in your photo is an (Eastern?) Orthodox style church . These EUCs can really take a lot of abuse, unlike the riders of them.? I learned today from a classical radio station that Prokofiev (Peter and the Wolf) lived in Ettal in the Bavarian Alps. Nice photos! Happy Trails! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One more photo showing the mountain-flat transition, plus a (slightly botched) panorama from the same spot. There are plenty of such overlook spots around here.

That's a good idea, it gives them another reason to have helmets, if they want to ride the Luffy, they have to have helmets on. Kind of an extra incentive. The paint job on those helmets is pretty cool, not just plain white helmets. Are those custom painted?

Their little heads were misshapen. Yes a local artist painted them. They are precious! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a combination of speed, accumulated road salt, low temperature and unseen ruts. The ground is really really hard upon impact. ? My EUC is not made for all weather speed and terrain roughness. No beeps that I remember. I rode over the spot on Saturday in the normally expected way. PT has me working on mini pushups off a table.

I wonder if an IPS LHotz with the 2.5 inch wide tire might be good for you. Several people have said in the forum that it is a very good wheel for rough terrain and hills. But with as many miles as you have ridden, this just may be a freak accident that will never happen again. I imagine road salt could be slippery, like riding on sand. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The suspension was ahead of it's time. Those must be new tracks, you can see there is plenty of adjustment left in the front adjustable gear. Also there are some kinks in the tracks like they were never used and broken in. See behind the first bogey and at the top in several places. Used tracks would be uniformly smooth in their droop. Pretty clever of the French to hide in plain sight fully functional military weaponry.I guess most countries do that, though.
