best way to start one you don't need to go the whole 9 yards in making a Facebook group, merch & etc. Just start with a group a friends who's willing to ride at a chill 15-20 mph pace for 10-15 miles. You want it to be all PEV friendly to include as many people as possible. Make sure to add stops every 5 miles or so or sooner depending on the mood of the group. Pick areas with low amounts of traffic and stick to bike paths, try not to get onto the sidewalk or pathways. Scenic routes is preferred & don't forget a halfway point where people could grab food or drinks especially bathroom breaks that's very important. Not everyone can hold it in for 3-4 hours. When picking a meet up spot, choose somewhere like a park or a public place with free parking is best. Even grocery store or Walmart, Target & etc works. Make sure to park on the far side so you don't bother customers. Also when making the routes test them to see is it smooth where your butt & teeth aren't going to be sore. Lastly and this is should be a mandatory thing, everyone needs to wear a helmet. Last thing you want is someone being rushed off to the ER. If you end up with a large group of 15+ directing people can be hard so either tell them ahead of time what major streets you'll turn on or what LAPEV likes to use is light up wands where you have an easier time directing people. Have fun, don't stress on the details and make sure everyone having a good time.
Nice relaxing ride! That RS has very impressive battery life. I was definitely jealous when you said it was 76F outside. Our overnight lows are in the high 80s :(. You should get an e-bike as well :).
@tomsgadgetgarage yeah, ive been thinking about that being my next purchase as im pretty happy with my RS and dont really think another scooter that has the same performance specs would make it feel different. So far im looking at the Segway Xyber e bike with the dual 30 amp hour batteries which is 60 Amps total for long range at a chill speed or the Solar Eclipse 2.0 Race edition, not for racing it but fir the stronger motor and bigger battery. 45 Amps on that one. Im just wondering which one is the cheapest as the Solar is like $6,799.99 which is quite a bit and rumors of the Segway Xyber base model is supposed to be $2,700.00 with 1 battery vs the dual battery model.
@karstonwilliams9474 i seen one On Ali Express but the guys who have bought it said that the thumb throttle wires are reversed so it wont work with it unless you are able to open it up and desolder the wires and placed them in the correct polarity.
Looks like yours
Man...I need to start a PEV group ride here in bakersfield
@@therealcmplx riders would definitely show up! These groups are pretty fun and chill.

Do you know anywhere I could get a thumb throttle for my INMOTION rs I looked on INMOTION but it says they’re sold out
