London to Brighton?

General

I’ve just noticed it’s the annual “London to Brighton” ride (for the
British Heart Foundation) this weekend ­ a ride I did on my bike back in
1992. Anyone doing it (or done it) on one wheel?

Not a pleasant thought. The sheer density of cyclists would make me worry
about the safety of doing it on a Coker, and I wouldn’t fancy riding 60
miles on anything smaller.

Good point - I think it’s about 27000 bikes. It was great fun on a bike,
though - a really good-feeling event.

I’ve also just found out its national “Bike-to-Work” day on the 20th

  • looks like an ideal opportunity for my unicycle’s first trip to
    the office!
