Saguaro National Park
We enjoyed a day visiting Saguaro National Park (East Side). Stopped at the Visitor Center for information and souvenirs. Then we took the 8-mile loop around the park. We stopped at a couple spots for photos and short hikes. It was a very pleasant and uncrowded National Park.

Kenai Fjords and Seward, AK

I enjoyed a drive from Anchorage to Seward, Alaska. Then I went over to Kenai Fjords National Park. I was amazed at the beautiful scenery along the way. I enjoyed the town of Seward with it's own stunning scenery, but Exit Glacier was absolutely the highlight of the trip. It was amazing to see the glacier firsthand.

We took our dog with us to Carlsbad Caverns National Park. It was great to tour the caverns and the park itself is well-run, not too crowded and in a beautiful setting.

100 Songs for Electric Unicycle Riding
Переглядів 31Місяць тому
This is my totally subjective list of 100 of my favorite songs to listen to when I feel like hearing music while riding my EUCs. Sometimes I like it quiet, but when I do like to hear music, these are some of my go-to songs. Sorry for the Star Wars type scrolling, but it was the best way I could find to show my list. Be careful listening to Radar Love. It is the most powerful song that makes you...

Lolssa $44 Tire Pump. Is it accurate? Can I trust it?
I like your dog she or he look like a teddy bear. pup pup is beautiful.❤❤❤ how are you doing on your unicycle? I will be 58 and a couple of months. I never rode nothing bike.. tricycle..skates nothing I don’t even know how to drive…. but as of now, I am going to buy me a E trike and learn how to ride it. I think that is better for me at this age.😂😂
@@ms.carlettawilson1522 Thanks for your comments Ms. Carletta! Maple Bourbon is a toy poodle (female). I have a few videos uploaded with her traveling around. An e-trike sounds good. I have three electric unicycles now and I look forward to excuses to ride each one any time I can. I am sure you will enjoy that trike!
I also bought a t4 pro. Grizla Parts is really cool. It's a shame that it's hard to buy here because it's in Korea.
I'm 58 years old, I ride an Inmotion V14 at 60 km/h, I stood on a unicycle for the first time last year, it's the best toy of my life
The answer is, no you can't trust it. Mine lasted about four tire top offs, two bicycles at 20 psi and two car tires at 34 PSI, and it went totally dead
@@TWDay-sy6nq Yikes! I have used it 7 or 8 times so far, but only on small tires. Thanks for the comment.
Hmm, my guess is you live here! Nice.
Very nice video, thanks for sharing!
@@Ambient_P Thank you! It was nice to spend some time in Flagstaff before it gets cold.
5:25 the circle is the center circle of a soccer field, we can see the center line and penalty area stripes in later footage. 49 here, really want a small EUC that I can keep near my desk at work, I have eBikes and often use eScooters but variety is the spice of life.
Wait... am I disqualified from this competition?
So serene,just beautiful 🙂✨
I skipped through but nice looking place👍
You can’t ride that in sandals!
@@robrockatansky5905 Hey Rob, only because it was on my KS14M, going about 8mph with no traffic. Felt like much more risk sand sledding than riding my little wheel.
@@motomert157 just busting your chops a little!
Too young. I started when I am 62 and severely with arthritis. Weird thing now if I stop doing EUC my arthritis get worse. Happy doing EUC do not go faster than 40m/h though.
Just turned 66 today,had a V11Y for about 4months,gave it to my 38year old son,bought two V5,s for 11 an 12 year old grandsons,few days ago my new V14 arrived we all ride em,take turns on all of them
@@stevenmcbride2776 Thanks for the comments Steven. It’s awesome that EUC riding is something you do as a family!
Hey MM, Great ride! I've been riding my t4 pro for a bit now after getting it a few weeks ago as my first wheel and it has been a quite a ride. I went to Central Park in new york to ride around the Loop and it was one of the most magical feelings in the world. I recorded it all too on my 360 camera, I should probably upload it haha. But Anyways, I wanted to ask you what PSI you pumped your suspension to, and if you would ever be interested in upgrading to an after market coil suspension, or is the stock more than enough ? Thanks !
@@MrYondaime705 Hi Mr.Y, Thanks for the comments. Central Park would be magical to ride in. Lucky You! I have been keeping my psi at 250. I check it about once a month and usually have to add air. Would be nice to have no maintenance but I am happy with the stock suspension and I like to get my wheels up on the table once a month for a good check. Leaving later today for a 5 day roadtrip and taking a wheel ‘along for the ride!’
I started at 66 but laid off for four years, and today was my first day back on the Solo. I am starting over. I am very encouraged by the speed of your progress. I need to get away from the wall. Are your problems turning right from being right-handed or from the torque of the wheel? I will be watching you. Thanks.
Good video, thanks, MM. Beautiful place to live, and nice trails, but too hot for me!
@@haroldsmith45302 Thanks for the comments Harold! I’m looking forward to being a snowbird in a couple years!
What is your favorite meal on the train? How many hour of uninterrupted sleep did you get on this trip in the sleeper and you slept on buttom bunk, is that correct?
@@chrisdobrowolski2783 Hi. Thanks for the comments. It was over a year and a half ago and all the meals were fine,a little better than first class domestic flying. I did only utilize the bottom bunk and I slept around 6 hours. The upgrade was worth $250-$300 to me for the distance I travelled. To be able to take a shower anytime was great. As well as to not hear other people talking or on their phones, or listening to stuff without headphones, etc. I hope this helps.
Buen español y muy saludable morning ride.
Any thoughts on riding with lite rain or hitting water pods since T4 was really bad for water , wondering how t4 pro does it
@@joec8611 I won’t ride it in the rain. I have gone through puddles with no issues.
Thank you
Both of them are really heavy! I ride a commander mini with 88pounds with grizzla pads.
you should concentrate on practicing riding your euc rather than listening to music
Gracias por hacer el vídeo en español, ahora sí están resueltas mis dudas
@@evazuniga117 Fue un placer hacerlo en Espanol. Muchas gracias por su apoyo!
dude you got down riding on the sidewalk and narrow pathways and riding at walking speeds holy shit dude ur a natural anything below 5mph and im eating asphalt
@@johnnyhernandez6895 Thanks Johnny. I’m sure you’ll get there soon.
your killing it for 2 times. good job. Did you stick with it and still riding
everyone is telling me im nuts also.....
IM 55 and waiting for my first wheel. Ive snow skied my whole life.. Is it tough
@@dbirds21 Hey Man, I just saw your comment. It was like learning to ride a bicycle. I did fall quite a bit in the early days. I highly recommend wearing all safety gear including padded shorts in the beginning. It was a blast learning this new skill and it’s been almost a year and I am still excited to ride an EUC whenever I can.
@motomert157 I got 300 miles now on my v11. Mostly off road now. I've outgrown my v11 looking to get commander mini or patton
Just ride it through the drive-thru man!
@@robrockatansky5905 I would try it, but I would have to return for my refills!
@@motomert157 Camelbak w/ diet coke?
That was fun. Every day is an adventure with an EUC.
@@BobJohnson-xg9ng Exactly!
Getting some great Kms in👍 I've been commuting to work as much as possible, good weather only, on my Master. I like hitting the local dirt trails when i get my close to home. My commute is only 17km round trip so hitting the trails makes it more fun than just riding the bike lanes. Cheers
@@patrickmckowen2999 That’s awesome Patrick. I hope you are able to ride for at least a couple more months up there in Canada before it is too cold.
Good thing that you're a long way from Mendota, Oak Brook and that old grill.
@@cascade5682 Yes Sir. Left in the mid-90s so I could ride a motorcycle year round and be close to some National Parks.
Be-You-tiful
You have came a long way, no stopping you, that small one is where it all started
@@cynthiaricee6602 Thanks Cynthia. I am really enjoying this EUC journey! I appreciate the encouragement.
I don't know you but I am proud of you, it just goes to show, you're never too old to learn, Don't stop practicing 😮😂
I’d benefit from a video leaning how to get into the seated position.
@@SAVY_JAX I will do that. Thanks for the idea!
Nice rides and cool videos! Your environment is so different from what we have here in Montréal Canada. I started riding about 3 years ago and it is still a lot of fun! Love the name of your last wheel, "la roue" haha. Stay safe!
@@TheRodmanu Thanks for the comments! I enjoyed a visit to Montreal, saw your Cathedral and had poutine for the first time!
What fun. Every ride an adventure! I ride a scooter, it's not the same as the freedom of an EUC, but I am having a very hard time learning the EUC.
@@BobJohnson-xg9ng Hi Bob, thanks for the comments. Did you check out my video “58 too old for an EUC”? In it you see how I struggled early on. (I’m still learning with almost 1,000 miles total between my 3 EUCs. You’ll get over the hump and be skilled enough to enjoy your EUC soon if you can ride a little each day.
I learned the basics on one with training wheels which I think cut my learning time down to nothing. I've seen similar homebrew solutions where people take those wide floor brooms, cut them in half, and attach the brushes to each pedal to keep it upright while learning.
I live north of Toronto, there are a couple others in my general area. I seen one last weekend. We did a group ride a couple years ago but I think most of the about 10 riders came from other areas. I ride form me and my like of EUC's and I dont try to promote it. It is deffinately an acquied taste. Cheers
@@patrickmckowen2999 Thanks for the comments Patrick. I love Canada! I drove from Windsor to Niagara Falls, then stayed a couple days in Toronto before driving through Sudbury and back to the States through Sault Ste Marie (I think). It was a great trip and the people were so nice!
@@motomert157 It is nice here - but like every other country we have our share of Aholes as well 🤣 Cheers
I bet you could dress it up with some bicycle like parts like a frame, another wheel, fork, etc and check it as a bicycle which they have special luggage for. Batteries separate. Yes you would be building a mock up 'bicycle' just to get it on a flight but once done it could be used over and over of course.
@@jameshisself7375 Brilliant James!
i'd also like to see the popularity of EUCs increase. It will take time and exposure. I personally like having the ability to easily add the EUC to the trunk and take it where ever I go. There is always a place to explore.
@@1MoreMisterE Yes Sir, I am having a blast taking an EUC with me on trips any time I can.
Nice chill ride. My parents used to live in Henderson, now they live with my brother who lives near the new Durango casino. Hey, was wondering what brand of amor are you wearing?
@@animatedlim Hi. Thanks for the comments. I need to ride some on that side of the valley. The black armor is Bilt, from Cycle Gear. I am using BodyProx wristguards and padded shorts (Amazon). My shin guards are Scoyco (Amazon). I usually wear 511 cargo pants.
I can't believe how smooth that trail is out in the middle of nowhere ! Looks recently re-surfaced too
@@zenzen9131 It is a fun place to ride. I am lucky to have quite a few awesome and interesting trails to ride! Usually there are very few people out there as well. I always like to go places where I see more animals than people!
Where did you get the wheel from? I a have a few questions
@@wilsonmeredith5517 Hi. I purchased the T4 Pro from Alien Rides’ website. It was an easy process. Happy to answer any questions I can.
@@motomert157 Hi, Can you tell me if yours shipped with the mudguard? I ordered a T4 Pro+ from a vendor that didn't ship it with the mudguard. After I complained they shipped it for free but then I had to buy an adapter from Grizzla to install it. Also what suspension did yours ship with? Don't get me wrong I love the wheel, it's that I can't help but feel I wasn't sent everything it should have shipped with.
@@wilsonmeredith5517 My T4 Pro came with the mudguard attached. I have the 100mm travel suspension, which works great for me. (I am about 160 pounds with all my gear). I am not sure what version shock it is. One thing I did not get with this wheel was a European charging cord. My Master came with one.
3 wheels, as well as in my case, but I have: V8F (learning new skills, fun), Patton (more offroad), Lynx (all around, longer rides). Similar stable :)
@@pawel.wisniowski Nice variety! Cool to have something for everything.
Thanks for the video and your comments / advice. Just started to learn seated riding on my Lynx (videos on my channel), it's not easy in my case, but will see.
did u update the new firmware ?
I have not updated yet. I like to wait awhile and see if anybody is having issues with the updates. What comes to mind is the CrowdSource update 2 weeks ago that cost hundreds of millions of dollars to various sectors. Holding off for now as I have no current issues with the T4 Pro. Thanks for your comment.
What a fun ride. Your production and editing values are really getting good.
@@BobJohnson-xg9ng Aw, thank you Bob. I am trying. I appreciate your comments.
It's day 3 of owning my own la roue and I'm making progress in learning. I'm getting excited man I wanna put some miles in her but not too confident yet. today I learned to mount and dismount safely and getting the wheel to accelerate properly to get a good balance! And as always great vid looks like so much fun!
@@johnnyhernandez6895 Congrats Johnny! I am glad you are enjoying it!! You are going to make a lot of progress quickly if you can put in the time. Remember to mix intentional learning/practice with also just having fun.
Good ride👍
Hey just happened upon this video. I just got my T4 Pro and am Henderson. Maybe we'll see each other when the weather gets cooler.
About what are the widths of the two units w/o pads?
I am out of town for a few days, but on ewheel’s website it states for widths (with stock pads) 10.6” for the T4 Pro and 13” for the Master. I can measure the two without pads when I return home. I hope this helps.
@@motomert157 Hi. Thanks for the answer. I have seen those numbers on ewheels site, but I would like confirmation as that seems big and may include the folded pedals. I am short and worried about the size of my next wheel. Please check real quick if you remember. Safe travels!.
@@Ingothnia They are both 8.75” excluding pads. The pedal width measurement for the Master is 19.5”, T4 Pro is 17.5”.
@@motomert157 Thank you SO much! That makes sense to me as the battery packs each look about as wide as the tires. That info will help me out a lot.
