@Rehab1 I'm confused, are you a natural born contrarian?  Let me 'splain.  You ride a "bicycle" like device with one wheel (EUC) and you ride a motorcycle with three wheels.  Does your car have five wheels?

That is a trick question right? Or you don't count the spare tyre in the booth?

Somehow I could just see Mr. and Mrs. @Rehab1 cruising to grab an icecream in the summer in that car....

Oooh! I like that.  No. I'm not counting the spare wheel, but I expected someone to ask.

Ride to historic DogtownCenter on Cape Ann Massachusetts

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dogtown,_Massachusetts

@PogArt Artur

The history is in the wiki link. 

"Early HistoryEdit

Once known as the Common Settlement, the area later known as Dogtown is divided between the city of Gloucester and the town of Rockport.[1] Dogtown was first settled in 1693, and according to legend the name of the settlement came from dogs that women kept while their husbands were fighting in the American Revolution.[2] The community grew to be 5 square miles, and was an ideal location as it provided protection from pirates, and enemy natives.[2] By the early 1700s, the land was opened up to individual settlement as previously it had been used as common land for wood and pasturing cattle and sheep. It is estimated that at one point 60 to 80 homes stood in Dogtown at its peak population.[3] In the mid-1700s as many as 100 families inhabited Dogtown which was stable until after the American Revolution"

The surrounding area is a post glacial melt area strewn with many boulders that were carried within the glacier.

During the US depression a notable figure contracted stone workers to inscribe some of the boulders.

Had a wonderful 80km ride on my 18XL today and most of the time i had a big smile on my face

What a great machine.

So I see it is contagious.... 

the smiley thingy... 

Great ears too😜

As for me I have a kind of fat face, so it becomes a big fat smile as soon as I ride too, even if it was poring cats and dogs here today.

hope I simply didn't charge it fully and it's nothing else.

I've read that after two years the lithium ion batteries 'age'

"Lithium-ion batteries age. They only last two to three years, even if they are sitting on a shelf unused. So do not "avoid using" the battery with the thought that the battery pack will last five years. It won't."

Two great wheels

Those are my two top choices for a 1600wh battery in an 18” wheel, owning neither, but have debated buying each many times.

Same here, I keep debating if my next wheel should be the MSX or 16X?

Watched the video and agree with you.  The 16X continues to look like the best wheel for me.  I would love either of those wheels but feel that the 16X will give the best of both.
