Thank you for the honor of being invited to be a Personal Rollercoaster! Me like. I even have a separate photo album listing for roller coaster/ride pictures: > **[Roller Coaster Photo Albums](https://www.unicycling.com/ofoto/coasters.htm)** > > John Foss shows off the world of > unicycling with lots of photos, information, and fun. Home of the > CA Mountain Unicycle Weekend. Roller coaster photos also found here. As for Mary, it’s been a long time. I don’t think her husband is still around, as he was quite a few years older. She made the best chocolate chip cookies, and an awesome yam dish at the holidays! > [@](#): > > I’m sure there will be some fixies, but mostly non-fixie-singlespeeders. Come to think of it, you can ask about using a Schlumpf and they might say it’s fine. After all, it’s still at least a fixie! > [@](#): > > I’ve put 152s back on my Coker (it’s had short cranks since RTL) and rekindled a deep lust for that machine, just enjoying the hell out of it. I’ve been fortunate to have a separate Coker that’s set up for MUni, that has 150s and that was a good training machine, on rolling trails, for RTL. But I’m too far away to make that event! I don’t even think I’m going to be able to do the (group) ride around Tahoe this year, due to conflict with another trip. ☹ --- _[View the full topic](https://unicyclist.com/t/singlespeed-a-polooza-20-mile-mtb-race-31-may-near-newburgh-ny/104575)._
