@franko Defo go next time! I'd love for something more frequent at a smaller scale.

Just saw myself and a few friends in another vid ^-^

@scabaa Just means we need to convert them 💅

@scabaa To be fair some of us had just come from a group ride in the morning but a handful of others showed up that weren't on the initial ride.

I wonder if Dom would do an IOM DNB ride? Like that'd be so cool if he did.

2 weeks ago me and a few friends attended a group ride unlike any other.

Yes mostly bikes but we had a few onewheelers come to represent.
I think I counted at least 10 Onewheels but there were so many of us DnB heads I can't say for certain.
All I know is we shut down MK that day!

I decided to get up front for the first bit and get some space to carve. Back in the main pack was very closely packed and a little hard to navigate with all the handlebars poking me in the front and regular bottom 🍑

It looks mental now but things only got more insane as we rode as a huge pack adding to our numbers the further we went.

Getting in around the speaker bikes was where you wanted to be. Getting a full body dose of bass. Literally making my entire body shake at points!

Then we got to the petrol station. Apparently this was the main attraction last year and this year did not disappoint.

@Beardonaboard just cruuuuising through the crowds outside MK Central Station.

And then helping out a skater get some speed up the hills. With his board being an absolute tank he had no issues towing.

Midride me and gang got to shoot off ahead to get a little break from the crowds.

I didn't realize it at the time but I was just ahead of Dom. I spent a lot of the event weaving from back to front and back again to experience a little of everything.

Last stop was Willen Lake. Really good spot to end it with heaps of space for everyone to pile in.

If you want to watch the whole thing from Dom's perspective here's the whole ride. Bonus points if you spot me or other Onewheelers appear throughout.

I hear the next UK one is in Nottingham sometime so I defo plan to go to that too.

Summer is the best season. Without question 🥰

So happy the sun is back!

@puzz360 Ws looking great! How are you finding the new ride style?

@wheelwizard Aha good eye. It is!
I don't usually adventure much through there anymore since there's always a surprising amount of fuzz in the area. But I felt a little adventurous that evening and decided to chance it.

Shame the weather is looking pants this weekend. I would've suggested a little group ride in the area.

@scabaa I tend to set off early and don't get back till the sun has completely set 😅 It was a mix. Big long converted railway to cycle track, ride around a reservoir and then a bit of mixed urban exploring later on before chugging along back home on mostly paved terrain. Charged up a few times between stops with a fast charger.

Just got done with a 123.6km ride. Best pic I got from the expedition 🥰

@scabaa Ah I see. I was hoping for regular outlets but that's probably never happening. Super cool you can just leave it like that without a worry.
I ride super lean so no backpack. Just the charger dangling off my hip from a carabiner in a lil bag with some misc bits alongside. Not sure I could pack the adapter 😅 Good shout though!

Personally would have preferred a HS but it's whatevs. She's got more range than my prior GT that's in retirement with the rest of the boards :3 Defo a good conversion especially if you can swap out the hypercore for a SF.

@Wheelwizard Different board. Built it from bits I acquired over time then used my Fungineer privilege's to get the missing bits I needed ^-^ Rides like a dream with just a few tweaks but I'll probably go over all the settings in vesc tool to make sure I'm not leaving anything on the table. So far it's just better than my GT was with the same battery. BTG seemingly making offroad less of a battery drain too which is nice.

@scabaa Oh wow there are just sockets around available to use?? That must be sooooo good for those rides. I'm still daisy chaining starbucks and McDonalds for reliable sockets here in middle England😭
Are the locals chill about you riding?

GT platform all the way. It's just better for putting power in safely. I'm using:

• Thor301
• GTFO BMS and headlights
• Purple anodized Superflux to GT rail axle blocks
• Superflux V2 stator and a V3 HT hub
• Thundercat BTGF tire
• WTF regular matte black rails
• Lowboy front footpad
• Kush wide retro purple rear footpad
• Mini flight fins
• Custom flight fender and flight shield

Debut of my new ride. Took forever to get it running but she’s a great little machine. Photogenic just like her sisters 🥰

@scabaa How is living on the isle of man? I hear it's quite pretty!

@scabaa I wouldn’t be able to print them sadly. But there’s probably a bunch of local places that can 3d print on demand :)

A little around the motor/footpad connector where the nuts seal up against the casing is a good idea too. It’s not super likely to leak but helps stop them becoming a problem later after some use.

I do have some fender deletes on printables too for the x10/7. Similar to the stock Pint/GT but split due to the rail bend. There’s a flat or curved version on there if you go through my models on there :)

@loaf That must have been one hell of a tumble to destroy the wrist guards and take you out for a year! Hope you're doing okay now.

@scabaa Hiya ^-^
Yep that one's me. I printed mine out of PLA+ with 6 walls on a 0.4mm nozzle. Layer height was less than 0.2mm and was surprisingly strong so anything you do beyond that should be more than good enough to hold it in place :)

For funwheels they're pretty good out of the box but for piece of mine I'd recommend a line of silicone around the boxes just to be safe.

While chasing the sun last night I had an opportunity to hide the board in a panorama. Good luck!

It's not super hard but like, I wanted to bring this little game back.

@wheelwizard "Step 2. Swear at tyre until it comes off" Aha preach! The only tire I didn't have to is the big burris BTG 12x8 😅
Loving the ride! We need to meetup for a ride at some point. I've re-added Northants back into my usual loops ^-^

Seconding the tire spoons. I never valued them till I had to pop an enduro off a superflux and may have invented new swears till I caved and printed the spoons to get it off.
