Participating in Onewheel group rides is an exhilarating experience that every Onewheel enthusiast should try. Riding with a community of like-minded individuals amplifies the enjoyment and camaraderie of Onewheeling. If you’re new to group rides and feeling apprehensive, fear not; this article by Nate from the Fordged YouTube Channel provides essential survival tips.

While it’s common to worry about your skill level, group rides can be perfect for beginners. They allow you to learn from others, discover different gear, and engage with the Onewheel community. Connecting with fellow enthusiasts can be incredibly rewarding.

To join a group ride, find your local Onewheel community on Facebook. If you’re privacy-conscious, consider creating a dummy account to access the group. Once you’ve found your local riders, introduce yourself and communicate your riding experience. This will help ride leaders guide you to suitable rides based on your skill level.

Before joining a group ride, ensure you have all the necessary gear, including safety equipment and your charger. Keep your Onewheel fully charged to enjoy the ride without range anxiety. Punctuality is crucial to avoid missing the group.

While riding, maintain a comfortable speed, and never push yourself beyond your limits. Safety should always be a priority. During breaks, quickly place your food orders to prevent delays. Respect restaurant staff as good behavior ensures future access for your group.

One common pitfall during breaks is forgetting to check your Onewheel’s charger status. Avoid disappointment by inspecting your board’s charging status during the meal.

For night rides, equip yourself with proper lighting to ensure visibility and safety. Avoid blinding fellow riders with head-mounted lights. Remember, group rides should be fun and communal. Enjoy the camaraderie, connect with fellow riders, and make lasting memories.

Joining local Onewheel groups and attending group rides enriches your Onewheel experience by introducing you to an incredible community of enthusiasts. So, search for your local group, attend a group ride, and embrace the adventure.
