    Everyone has their purpose for EUCs, but this use case of exploration is alluring. I always wanted to join Marty on his infamous treks. It’s a shame he discontinued his tours. You are so lucky, he opened up this lane of travel for you, WOW

    I lived in So. Callifornia (Santa Monica) for yrs. My Dad Lived here since I was born in North Hollywood in '72. I havent been back out there in over a decade but it is the best place to Ride an EuC (even tho I never rode any out there since I didnt have an euc then). I love it there but circumstances and family brought be back out to Jersey. Calif. has been ruined by the politicians, It is a true Jewel and many people never see all the places you can explore... I hope you had a great time Bud.. GOD Bless

    Hi Shawn, lots of posts recently, can't keep up with you. Have other things to do you know 🙂 Mt Baldy 70 miles, my longest ride to date 35miles, more than enough for me - Extreme. Definitely not Florida, not the UK either to be sure. You have to be careful riding 90 miles in the UK you might get your feet wet, especially around me, I'm in Cornwall in the far SouthWest of the Country. Altitude, you loose around 2 degrees C (we don't do Fahrenheit) for every 1000ft, something from my Hang Gliding days 🙂 Martys Drone goes off filming by itself - I've seen the video, one of the best he's done - don't tell him I said that 🙂

  • @oldretireddude
    @oldretireddude 3 месяца назад +3

    How much time to ride 90mi? The quality of the suspension has to make the 90mi much easier.
    Considering that you've ridden up to the road closure on a one wheeled balance device, "proceeding at your own risk" seems redundant.😂

    My husband weigh 190 lbs (200 with helmet, backpack) what type of suspension do you recommend that is as smooth as butter ( street ride) for the Sherman L. which one should I choose? 62 lbs or 66?

    • @Duf
      @Duf  3 месяца назад +1

      I like a lighter spring but some prefer higher. If he is going to be exclusively street I would say a 66 or 62. The 70lb felt a little hard for me compared to what I am used to on my other Veteran suspension wheels.
