    @McFly

    I'm 47 years old and am experiencing a rare illness that keeps me from doing many of the things that I enjoy such as mountain biking, skating, and just about anything that expels too much energy and causes me to breathe hard (This disease attacks my lungs and muscles). I purchased the Onewheel so that I could still enjoy the outdoors with some adventure on wheeled vehicle. I raced cars for most of life including go-karts and love the tire on this thing. I am married with grown children and recently became a grandparent. We also have an Airedale Terrier puppy. I still ride my Harley and my Grom when I can.

    • RE: Back on the proverbial horse (AKA Onewheel)!

      @cr4p Thanks for sharing - I bought the Onewheel to ride casually around town and take with me on trips for downtown commuting. I don't want to feel like have to be all suited up just to go check out the sights or go dinner. If I were trying to be extreme or do tricks that protector seems really nice.

      Still nervous every time I get on this thing. I want to ride it so bad but lack the confidence after that fall even though I have been doing low speed maneuvers and still balancing. When I go down the road I feel like I'm going so slow that it isn't even fun; any faster and I'm afraid I'll crash again. Ugh

    • RE: I think I want to ride the onewheel too fast

      The result of my nosedive in Extreme mode at 14.5 mph. Shoulder broken in 4 places!

      I have tried to ride again but am very nervous and afraid to ride the thing!

      @frotozoa I didn't think that I would be afraid of it but I find that I am very nervous on it. Hopefully, I will get my confidence back.

    • Back on the proverbial horse (AKA Onewheel)!

      Some of you might remember my bad crash that left me with a broken shoulder, bruised ribs and injured hip a few weeks back. Today; for the first time since, I took out the Onewheel and slowly rode it around for about a half a mile. My arm is still not completely healed and I was very afraid of taking another spill so I kept it slow and only rode about .5 miles (I'm so afraid of falling; if I were to fall on that arm again I'd be in real trouble!). It felt good and I can't wait to be completely healed and build my confidence on it again.

      Thanks to all that have encouraged me to get back on the Onewheel.

    • RE: Update - BAD CRASH - 2 Week old Onewheel for sale

      @bmorri0371 I think I'm going to wait until I heal to make final decision.
