This is getting silly. We’ve just started going to a pub within unicycling distance… and I’ve just found out how to jump around much better… and I watched the Universe video the other day… and I ordered a new MUni yesterday… and I’ve not unicycled at all today due to my leg being rather sore… and I can’t wait to go back to York simply because of the new unicycling opportunities around campus… and… and…
I think I’m becoming obsessed. Even more than normal. Is this safe? Hell, I’ve now got a picture of a unicycle on my desktop.
Excuse me while I go and hand myself in to the proper authorities.

Sorry folks, looks like I won’t have it restored and re-assembled in time
for NAUCC/UNICON. It’ll have to be some year when I’m not president of both
organizations…
Desktop image at home: A photoshop doctored image of my MUni - when I ordered it, I doctored up this image so I could see what the stock power pashley looks like with the miyata airseat. It looks pretty close to the real thing, actually.
Desktop image at work: Youve seen those pics of the Unis going by the moon ala ET. I took a different shot from the movie, where you see Elliot’s friends flying and looking all surprised, and I photoshopped KH into it (a pic of Kris doing his high jump - Kris’s site is the only place I could find decent pics of a guy on a uni). It looks pretty good, and one kid is looking right at Kris with a “What the hell!” look on his face.
Last Sunday I did about 2 1/2 hours off road on the Muni, came home totally knack’d, then cleaned up, got changed and went out for 1 1/2 hours on the 20, teaching my mate to freemount. We ended up going for a short ride and having a race. I got home totally knack’d and had a bath, then thought, ‘Oh, I’ve an hour or two before it gets dark; should I go for a uni ride?’
Yeah… sounds like my saturday; went out for an hour; came back sweating buckets; cooled down; went out for another hour; repeat four times until I just had to stop because my left leg would have fallen off.
I’ve just started looking after someone doing work experience at work (cor, I feel old now…) - I wonder what he’d think if I turn up on my unicycle. Hmmm…
(note the roach pads with flames, the RED KH MUni, and the
