unicycling side effects

im making a uni out of an old push bike, im not to sure that it is going to work but its going to have gears a brake and be able to free wheel i have a thread on it… uni with gears, brakes and freewheeling hub … instead of just walking the bike up the garden to grind it up i rode it and found a bad side effect of riding a uni, i only rode the bike for maybe 40 meters but it felt realy weird i forgot i could steer with the handle bars so colided with most of the trees in my garden and i didnt stop pedaling as i fogot i could, i think i will try riding a bike again tomorrow to make sure i still can and because it felt so weird
