No reason for me to ride to the starting point. I put my wheel back together literally with duck tape and will test it's road worthiness tomorrow (Friday). I will be wearing my Pebble watch and keeping a sharp eye on wheel temperature. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBinBalt Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Jerome- My guess is that with a 12PM meet we'll roll out around 12:15, or 12:30 at the latest. Glydiators has a group on the Telegram App. It has a live location feature that I'm sure at least a half dozen of us will activate. Feel free to check it out, you'll be able to see where we are on the route. Seeya Saturday! t.me/DMVGlydiators 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My only really crash where the wheel went flying into the air and came down breaking the poorly designed and implemented screw holders on the inner case of the KS18L. There "were" enough good screws to hold the case together. In taking it apart to replace the circuit board several other holders broke off or already had broken. One side of the wheel has 'no' screws holding the shell so I had to duct tape it. The only solution is to dismantle the entire wheel and replace the inner shells. I will live with the transparent duct tape for now. A bigger problem is replacing the controller board has made me seem like a new rider. I can't go over 12 mph, for xx miles. Then I have to do another 125-150 miles to get full speed. The App is calling my wheel an illegal product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For those who decided to stay indoors in the ac due to the heat, you missed out! We barely overheated as we were moving the entire time. Thanks guys for putting this together!

Jerome Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 Fantastic group ride today. Pedestrians stayed indoors so we had miles and miles of bike paths to ourselves. The heat for me was not a factor and I wore my MC jacket as always. The rider's were great people and a joy to be around. I hope anyone in or around Philly/SNJ/Del with an EUC will join this forum and dialog. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerome Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Congrats to our very own ACTURBO - Chris!! He was part of the 105+ mile group ride by the Glydiators of DC. We are not worthy. When I grow up I want to be just like Crhis. Cool running man. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
