yoyo! I love the wrist lights because it helps 100% with interacting with drivers and being seen and given space. It's on Amazon amzn.to/3vSbaPR Bike Tail Light 7 colors 14 modes The body armor has little holes I can loop these lights through: amzn.to/48WR0Cw 500 Lumen Super Bright Bike Lights Front and Back LED Rear Taillight, 1000mAH Bicycle Lights
Its been SO COLD here (8F) today in Missouri I'm just dying to go ride. It's awesome to hear you are liking soft/race mode! Do you lower your body to counter wind resistance? What would you say your average cruising speed is? I'm trying to get comfortable in the low 30mph range. It takes practice to get comfortable at higher speeds for sure.
I want to lower my body more to counter the wind resistance and also because I've enjoyed being more of a low rider and get satisfaction out of it. Probably average speed on the roads for this trip was between 30-40 mph. The suspension certainly helps getting comfortable at higher speeds, I'll tell ya that!
I’m crappy at mounting and that’s after 2 years. I gotta bum left knee. I ride a Sherman max and Sherman S. the is is too much pressure on left knee. That’s my dominant leg. So I have to mount with a pole or car, something to grab on, it actually embarrassing. 😂
Hahah I can totally relate. Failing to mount or having issues mounting while on the road and all eyes are on you can be a buzzkill. When nobody is around, I practice mounting with my non-dominant side and it's slooooowly improving.
hey man not sure if you already do this couldn't tell from the vid but one thing that helped my wobbles on my begode was a little shift change when I'm bending my knees far i just do a little scoot to shift my legs abit back on the wheel on straights and some carves like you mentioned. hope it helped
Thanks for the suggestion. I'm definitely willing to try out any techniques to become a better rider! I had this thought after my ride today that I was going to give it a shot and now you validated it.
There is an open locker area in between the front desk and the gym area where I could stash it. Then I placed all my gear and sweatshirts on top of it to discourage curious people. I would be more cautious if it was a chain gym though. Besides, it's not exactly to carry an 80+lbs EUC out without knowing what you're doing or where the on switch is even. But yea, to reiterate, it depends on the facility for sure.
I added a Break Free helmet light to my kit. Really helps when commuting and communicating with cars.
Great suggestion. I just took a look at that, it ain't cheap but it is our lives we're talking about.
Good times
nice ! its a 50e version ?
Solid Ride bro!
Ride That Tasty Wave
Yea buddy! Still have a lot of practicing to do!
wuzgud purp, where do you get your body, and especially wrist lights? I like that, can be used as blinkers wider than a motorcycle

I’m a medium mode guy with 1° forward angle tilt.

always practice to lower your body and get used to it until wobbles disappear.
You're right about practice, maybe even low like seated?
@@PurpleRider yup, until your butt makes contact to the seat. thats makes it easy to learn how to sit. 👌
also put your hand to the bar so that you have reference on how far the seat are and also prevent wobbles.
Cool, do you ride with the hand on the bar while seated usually?@@vampiping
How do you secure your EUC at the gym ?
