Jason McNeil Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 Wonder if he's on the forum? http://tnhdigital.com/7106/arts/mehdi-el-azouzi-and-his-ninebot-one/Pinnacle of his experience with the Ninebot One was when El-Azouzi left it in the lobby of a library and it was mistaken for a bomb. The library was evacuated and El-Azouzi had to go to the police station to retrieve it.“They mistook my electric unicycle for a bomb. And you could only imagine the reactions I received at the police station when I showed up and they saw I was Arabic,” he said in a joking manner. "one day saw a YouTube advertisement for a similar product to the Ninebot One, which was called the Airwheel X5, designed by someone in London." X5 was definitely not designed in the UK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet I can get my own "Featured" story as per below ...
