I have 6 UDC stickers on my binder, and an english teacher at my school(who goes by the name of Sensei Bell, since we have 3 Mr.Bells at our school) approched me and told m he unicycled, which was cool, but then went on to tell me how he was into offroading up at a local trail. We got to talking and he fricken flipped out when I told him I knew Kris Holm. I am now his new favorite student, even though I’m not in any of his classes, we’re scheduling a ride soon, and he’s bringing his muni tomorrow to school. I’m gonna let him borrow Spaced Out and Universe2, looks like the beginning of a beautiful relationship.
Looks like there is gonna be a full-fledged uni-club this year after all.
Hey! One of my teachers knows how to unicycle too!
Me and my friend who is the only other unicyclist in town (pretty much) were messing around in chemestry class and drew some pictures of unicyclers doing tricks and getting severely injured. Our teacher saw it and told us how he used to ride one. He had a tall one (I can’t spell jerraff properly) and fell off once and broke some bones in his back, so he didn’t ride anymore.
But we brought in a unicycle anyway, just to show him what we could do, and he was able to ride it halfway across the classroom. He listens to Pink Floyd, too, so that makes him just about the coolest teacher in our school.
You’ve got to be kidding i have 2 Mr. bells in my school, they dont unicycle, but i have a teacher in my school that can. You’r lucky, i dont have anyone to uni with and i would take anyone.
TIGHTNESS! I have 2 uncles that ride…both married into my family somehow…herm…ah well. but one used to jsut ride and the other did trials and shit, at a funeral talkin about unicycles…damn that was funny!
My friends and I all learnt to ride from a teacher at our school who ran a circus skills club, a couple of months ago i went to a convention that i first visited on a school trip with him and he was there with a load of kids from his new school. Actually i realise while writing this that I’ve never actually seen him ride, I’ve just been assured that he can, he’s pretty good at all the other circus skills. Anyway although he never taught me academically i deffinitely owe him one.
not only does Dave know how to spell giraffe, he has to call the local “giraffe man” to get them out of his yard. They run wild in Johannesberg, SAfrica!
That is a, perverse named, knobkierie or ‘knopkierie’ in the more traditinal afrikaans spelling.
Basically a club that also serves as a walking stick (‘kierie’ actually means ‘walking stick’).
They are fearsome weapons and are usually carried along with an ‘assegaai’ (short, stabbing spear - Shaka’s contribution to world warfare) crossed behind a shield made of cowhide.
This is included in our national coat of arms.
