Here is a video from Saturday's ERiders event to San Isidro. There were 55 Riders in 55 degree weather to take on the challenge.
I am posting the videos on Instagram, which I started using in order to share things like this with the people involved in these kinds of events - not my real name on Instascam due to the Orwellian nature of corporate sites. I would rather spend my time on Hive or out doing things than bringing more ad revenue to people who use that money for harm to people and countries.
My son and I woke up at 9:00 in the morning and had a bite to eat, then we got ready and left to go meet my other son at Eco-Alsina. They sponsor the ride and provide prizes that will be raffled off at the destination.
You'll see my boys talking in the beginning of the video, the youngest has a lot of curly hair and the older one has a pink helmet - he bought that one for his lady but switched with her because this one fits him better. Like me, he doesn't care if anyone thinks he is crazy. He is comfortable in his own skin riding a one wheel wonder and wearing a pink helmet. We met him at his work and then went to Palermo where everyone was gathering for the ride.
Right before we left, I counted and there were almost 50 people but more arrived on the way because the route is published in a Telegram group. Most people know the route and some some join the ride as we pass near their homes. It is a long line of E-Wheels and scooters, so it is not hard to miss us, as you will see in upcoming posts.
There were at least 15 ladies riding and half of the group were between 35-72 years old - I am in that group - maybe we can call us the Second half of lifers.
The woman in the foreground just bought her wheel - an @S18 - and she came to the event with her daughter. I was talking to her before we left. This was her first ride and mine as well. I have been used to being the only one with an electric unicycle (#EUC) for many years. It is nice to now be one of the estimated 500 EUC owners riding in the metropolitan area of Buenos Aires.
We rode a total of fifty kilometers there and back and my S22 still had over half left on the battery.
Watch the start of the ride...
All video footage and images shot by me at an event that I attended.
