Injuries sustained while recruiting unicyclists

My kid runs in the house,
“Mom! A boy is riding his unicycle down the street and he’s not in our club!”

With the mission of adding more recruits to the Wobbling lions, our club, I race out the door wearing my clogs with a leaflet in hand. I don’t get very far and I do a faceplant, cushioned only by my knee. I did save my hands for the last impact.

  1. bruised cheekbone
  2. 2 palms less about 1 square inch of skin
  3. reinjury of previous fencing/unicycle injury to right wrist.
  4. Swollen blue patella

I have never been hurt that badly on my unicycle and based on this one example, I have decided, and perhaps unjustifiably so, that unicycling is much safer than running in clogs.

Teeheehee

Sorry, but you have to admit, it is a little funny that you can unicycle, but not walk in clogs.

:stuck_out_tongue:

You’re alright though, right? I know you listed the injuries, but sometimes they hurt a lot worse then they should…and what exactly is a patella?

Mine is my kneecap. What do you call yours?

Yes it is kind of funny, or at least it will be when the pain subsides. I need help coming up with stories about the face injury besides bar fight. I honestly can’t tell people the truth. How’s that for contradictory!

You should know better than to run after a unicyclist without your body armor/padding on.

You are wise beyond your years.

tell people you were riding really fast and a little kid walked out infront of you and you bailed off the uni to save the kid from certain death.

I think that’s pretty good, thanks.

its totally original, i haven’t even used it yet…

Did you get him in the end?

please say yes.

I knew I should have known that…ah well, that’s why I’m in Physics, not Anatomy

I’m sorry that you’re hurt…:frowning:
