I ride almost every day in Hood River, OR. and I see (maybe) one out of four O/W riders wearing any safety equipment at all. I've even seen a few guys riding with a bottle of beer in their hand (no open bottle law in Hood River). Amazing.

The blinking goes on to infinity and I can't count that high.

Every once in awhile my plus will start slowing down uncommanded with the nose raising till the tail starts dragging and I hop off when it's almost at a stop. I check the blue light and it's blinking about twice a second instead of the (normal) once every two seconds. I turn it off then on and am good to go. Also, about every 20th start up I get the twice a second shit and have to do the off - on routine and the light returns to (normal) blinking and I can ride. I bought the board with 86 miles on it (now it has 1200 +) and it's always done that every 20th or so startup but the slowing down shit is fairly new. Any idea's? Thanks in advance.

I'm 75 and have over 1,100 miles on my plus. I ride most days in summer. None in winter (PNW).

@stinkyface Thanks for the tips. The battery was close to full when this happened (twice). I'll leave it plugged in for a couple days and try to borrow an Android. Thanks again, Bob

While out riding, every so often, my XR+ will start slowing down with the nose raising (uncommanded) till the tail starts dragging. I get off and the blue light will be blinking about twice a second. I turn it off, then back on so the light is normal (about one blink per second) and I'm good to go.... for awhile. Every 8-10 starts the light does that fast blinking and is not ridable so I have to restart it and go. It's done that for 1,000+ miles but the slowing down is new. Idea's? Thanks, Bob.

I've ridden over 1,000 miles in Oregon, Washington, California, and Nevada on city streets and sidewalks and have never been hassled by the cops. Shit..... like they could catch me LOL.

@Sponge315 Ran you off the parking lot? Seriously? I ride my O/W INSIDE the casino's when I'm in Reno. I have a 6"x6" handicap sticker on the fender (which is legit - trashed knee from ski wrecks) that I show security with an explanation. Sometimes it even works LOL.

How about just sticking the O/W in your check in suitcase along with the rest of your shit? I can't imagine why that wouldn't work. Comments anyone? I'm going to Oahu next month for surfing, hang gliding and (hopefully) Onewheeling. I always stay in the Waikiki area and the sidewalks there are about 20' wide not to mention the gently sloping beach with lots of wet sand.

@ShreddieMcskate are those round pads right in the center line between the sensors?
