Daan Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Took my Solowheel Xtreme off-road today -- so fun! Bumpy gravel, roots, and steep terrain -- amazing how well these EUC's hold up :-) Ah, not yet @vee73's level but super fun for me Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EUC Extreme Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Off-road driving is incredibly fun. The muscles get movement. City driving is really boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

esaj Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Wow youre moving fast - how fast?As it's a Solowheel, my guess would be less than 20km/h. It always looks faster the closer to the ground the camera is. Riding fast in hiking and forest paths isn't exactly easy, I can do around 20km/h at best with the Firewheel on hiking paths, and probably couldn't even ride on "real" forest paths. If you want to see fast offroad-riding, check out this video from Vee73 (and others from his channel) : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daan Posted July 29, 2015 Author Share Posted July 29, 2015 @esaj: lol after @vee73's video mine looks pretty slow Wow youre moving fast - how fast?At that track my average speed was 12km/hr and max speed 19km/hr (I think on the second gravel segment). That is plenty fast for me -- I am wearing a (skateboard) helmet and wrist protection when in the forest btw. Any faster would be too dangerous for my taste -- vee73 wears a full motorcycle outfit with full helmet and body armor I think. Even then, he had a pretty serious crash recently; when you hit a tree at 30+ km/hr you can get hurt! he is fine though as he has Finish super human powers (You can read about his off-roading and crash here: http://forum.electricunicycle.org/topic/111-i-plan-to-test/?do=findComment&comment=4790) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
