Altadena native here. Riding on a escooter on the rocky mountain roads of altadena is the perfect way to make going from point a to point b a thrill. I'm also go through the same areas you do on the daily. If you see someone with long hair on a scooter with a seat, you already know thats me Also wanna add I 100% agree with you guys on the therapy. The adrenaline and required focus distracting you from the stress while you're swerving through picturesque views has to be the one of the best ways I've achieved that 'state of mind' since before ive had a lot of childhood friends pass away

Well said. Nothing like a ride for a good state of mind. Plus, we live in a fun area to ride. Awesome, I haven't tried a seat but it seems riders that do have one love it, do you ride with the seat most of the time? It would be nice to run into you to have a chat about fun places to ride. Thanks for watching. Scoot Scoot!

It's like a magic carpet ride through town, very therapeutic. Excellent video, 1st Scootscoot video I've seen...very powerful and fun too. I subscribed as soon as you shouted out, "Scoot Scoot!" 🤣 I'm going start shouting Scoot scoot everytime I pass someone now :)

I know what you mean, some nights, after a long day at work and after putting the kids to sleep, I just go for a night time ride around the neighborhood to relax and have some fun. Good thing these scooters are quiet. :) I am waiting for BF deals to upgrade to a 2022 ghost or city Pro.

I love riding my scoot. It’s super nerdy but man it’s fun. I like it so much I’m probably going to get back into motorcycling

riding scooters has been a major player in my addiction recovery and mental health issues. I did a poll recently on reddit asking for others experience with mental health benefits from riding their scooters to use in an upcoming video. you're definitely not alone in regards to finding therapy in riding, I spoke with a few dozen people with similar experiences to my own. sorry for your loss bro, glad you're feeling a bit better.

just hit 150 miles on my Apollo ghost! Im so glad i went with a dual motor scooter because even though i don't need to fly everywhere going 35mph, its nice to know i can if i need to. Plus the acceleration is awesome. I was gonna get the phantom but its bigger / heavier and i dont really need all that.
@scootscootpev27612 жыл бұрын
Once you go dual motor its hard to go back to single motor. Agree with you, especially on the portability factor. The Ghost, at 65 lbs., is the last stop before portability becomes a lot of work. That said, I am looking at upgrading to the Phantom, or something similar in it's class soon. Thanks for watching. Scoot Scoot!

Great video and very sorry for your loss. I've been reading some bad reviews on Apollo's customer service on Reddit and was wondering what your experience has been. I'm considering the City Pro, but want to make sure I get quality service after purchase, especially if scooter issues occur and I need to use the warranty.
