In The Wild, Photo Share (If Possible To Capture).... Keep Your OneWheel In The Shot If You Can.

We had a few nice days over the extended Easter weekend.
Managed a ride to a local viewpoint, lots of ruts with large flint stones to try and put you off balance…
One bonus, the tractor had been around turning the fields over and had flattened out some of the large flints making the path a bit smoother.
I have a couple of segments set here… one going up, the other going down, the trouble is you always meet dog walkers etc. who like a chat. Plus obviously being courteous you always have to slow down out of respect regardless. So, never really seem to improve my time 😂😂😂New rail guards from Craft and Ride (one of the few companies to offer free shipping regularly, I really appreciate that…)
I have some Matt black Bang Bumpers on the way too to finish the look off. -
^ I love wide open spaces like that. Wish I had more around that are electric friendly.
Lots of dead fallen trees blocking the trails this year. I'm doing some temporary clearing just so I can ride lol.
edit: Non-potato photo.

Love that, a chain saw, the perfect companion in that environment 😂 -
@puzz360 I cannot explain enough how efficient the Onewheel has made my chores. Usually I was firing up a mower, putting tools in a wagon and hauling them as far as it could go. The OW goes where the mower can't and it's so much faster even if I only carry one thing at a time.
Not to mention, I probably wouldn't have taken this photo if the saw wasn't orange lol.

Trash cans at 12mph. Loud as thunder!

Two photos from today's ride.

@s-leon What snake and what flowers are those?
-
@blkdout -- Well, the yellow flowers in the golden sunshine are trout lilies, easily identified by the mottled or splotched greenery.
The snake? I am less sure. It's common -- I have seen more than a half dozen of these small snakes on the Greenway in the past two days. It may be a brown snake -- maybe Dekay's brown snake -- but that's just a guess. This one was interesting because of its body undulations and knottiness. Most of the others have been more relaxed in form. This one also let me get close without much reaction. -
@s-leon My first thought was brown snake but the stripe and crinkle threw me off lol. Based on the range of the Trout Lily though, I think we're both correct.
My Onewheel is just out of frame before almost smashing this little guy. Thank goodness for motor braking:
-
@blkdout -- Wonderful photo catching the forked tongue of the snake!
Hmmm... another name for trout lily is adder's tongue. -
@s-leon the boy scout in me is telling me to pet the snake
also I'm digging the box on top, I find it to be fitting of the onewheel V1's style and look
-
@blkdout pet the snaaaake
-
I promise not to make this a snake thread but couldn't help sharing one of my favs. My dog found it and made it not happy lol.

Onewheel Plus yesterday with a palm-sized frog:
One of three tennis-ball-sized wool sower oak wasp galls on the same tree today -- at a bit above eye level, too high to have the Onewheel in the photo:
Onewheel V1 today with an unidentified 18-24" snake: -
Garter. -
Been a while since I managed to get some nature in my shots.
However during a little 1am ride I stumbled across a lil hedgehog just vibing by itself.
It tried to run away as I took the pic >.>

By the trailside:
-
@s-leon The shade of yellow reminds me of those foam banana sweets and now I'm really peckish for some. Good thing I don't like mushrooms else I might be tempted to take a nibble.
-
@lia -- Ruth Anne looked these mushrooms up comparing photos online and they appear to be edible. Not that I am planning to try them.
-
I made a few friends on my trail ride today!
