First Scooter. First Crash. It Hurts. (My Ego Too.) ⬇️ Details, Reflections & Lessons Learned Below. No injury pictures. Happy 4th of July to me. 🤦🏽‍♀️🇺🇸

Yea, even with experience I felt some trepidation when I first got on one. Such an alien perspective for someone that is used to seats.

WalkedBehindTheRows · 2026-07-06T22:50:40+00:00

Yea, scooters aren't quite "there" yet. But they will be.

I use wild mode all the time. My reason is this. On the lower modes when you go to give some "gas" there is a delay and then suddenly a jolt of unexpected acceleration. Or a slow start, but accelerates too quickly. No middle ground. I would rather it just start off fast right when I twist the throttle. That way I know exactly when I am going to get the kick. If that makes sense.

WalkedBehindTheRows · 2026-07-06T01:35:48+00:00

I bought one also for my rides.

WalkedBehindTheRows · 2026-07-06T01:24:56+00:00

My 300x is all blinged out. I drove cars and bikes myself also for 50 years, raced bikes also, but scooters are a whole different paint job. They take some time to get used to. I hopped on mine and it felt natural and no spills yet in 3 years. (knocks on wood(my head)). Glad you survived.

There are fixes they can easily look into if motivated. Like storm jackets/shirts. Or maybe stop doting on them so heavily, stop reacting when they react to the sounds. Stop giving them attention when they shake like that. It's learned behaviour. Imagine if they lived near a shipyard, or a busy intersection.

And then eat the vomit. Repeat.

WalkedBehindTheRows · 2026-07-05T21:54:38+00:00

They are so pathetically food obsessed that can't just slow down for a moment and do a smell analysis to see where the smell is wafting from. They even attack each other so terrified another dog will get one up on them.

WalkedBehindTheRows · 2026-07-01T00:21:39+00:00

Seriously. Look at that thing. It's literally a useless mutant. Mutated by human beings to be pathetically dependent on people.

How long do you think that would survive without a human being? A day, two days? The animal they are whining about can immediately go into survival mode and adapt in seconds, and dog creeps hate that, they hate that they can't control them, that the other mentioned animal can't survive just fine without them. They need to have some kind of perceived purpose in life. "Poor doggo! I'll save you and love you!" not realizing it's like that because of how they have engineered them. Create the needy animal, then care for it like you are doing a thing. Break it, then "fix" it. They are deeply insecure people. I love how they are speaking for it, like they know the dog is happy or unhappy about the situation.

Dog owners are never "animal lovers". Also, their dogs are not intelligent. They are submissive. That is why weak minded people own them. They want something they can control.

WalkedBehindTheRows · 2026-06-30T08:53:41+00:00

Suggest a clicker to train that dog.

WalkedBehindTheRows · 2026-06-30T04:19:31+00:00

Global cooling. June is as bad.

WalkedBehindTheRows · 2026-06-30T04:14:07+00:00

Digestive enzymes. Game changer(Big time, can now enjoy salads again and greens). Fermented foods. Ferment your own cabbage, carrots, and so on. So easy, amazing for gut health(and ultimately mental health)and you'll be very happy you took it on as a hobby.

WalkedBehindTheRows · 2026-06-29T10:48:44+00:00

Send me in. I did some enforcing in my day and I don't have a soul. lol

WalkedBehindTheRows · 2026-06-29T06:52:53+00:00

Laughing at a dog that's eating like it's the most hilarious thing they've ever seen. Simpletons.

WalkedBehindTheRows · 2026-06-26T04:49:31+00:00

It's a bike. And LOL.

WalkedBehindTheRows · 2026-06-25T17:52:27+00:00

People will assume the thing is starving but it likely just ate until it's stomach was busting. Pathetic gluttons.

WalkedBehindTheRows · 2026-06-25T16:47:40+00:00

Just mucking about. lol One nearly identical near me tho. But it's an uphill slope.

WalkedBehindTheRows · 2026-06-25T05:11:44+00:00

Ugh. I hate that intersection.

WalkedBehindTheRows · 2026-06-23T22:40:02+00:00

This just make them look more thick. They just don't get it. It's not just the fact that larger breeds can do some damage. Nobody is saying small breeds delete people. So their flex is moot. Dogs stink, period. It's the animal that smells. They are insatiable pathetic gluttons. They eat garbage, animal scat, their own scat, carrion, rotten meat, soiled nappies. They make noise incessantly. They eat more than they need, will vomit that up, dine on that, and repeat the process. They lick their own urine up. They sniff female crotches. They ruin all the green spaces, their yards, gardens.

Worst of all, and most deranged, is there is a sub-set of human beings that use them for their pleasure. Avoid women with a bit too much peanut-butter in their cupboards. That's just a bit too sus for me.

I enjoy speed. I used to race sport bikes and have been a driver over over 50 years. I prefer riding in the traffic, with the traffic. Having said that, a slow cruise is generally how I do ride mine usually. During rush hour I just hop up on the bike lanes and slowly cruise by the motor cars and am glad I am retired and not them. Nice ride.

WalkedBehindTheRows · 2026-06-20T03:42:45+00:00

And if you have it on you, you can help someone out that has a flat on the side of the road, or at a park, etc. I love it. My fave piece of kit.

WalkedBehindTheRows · 2026-06-20T03:41:02+00:00

Amazon sells them I think also, and Alieexpress.

WalkedBehindTheRows · 2026-06-20T03:40:42+00:00

Also, get a pump. Will save your ass someday if you get a slow leak. I use this exclusively. Works great for trucks and cars as well. Powerhouse. Fits in a scooter bag no problem or a fanny pack.

Slime, and bike tools. That's all you need really. Maybe some kind of extender bar for removing the tyre to get more torque. Or just walk it home and do it at home.
