One fixed wheel!

My new toy - a unicycle.com unicycle!

 

nimbus ii unicycleIn the constant pursuit of new things to learn and fun to be had on wheel(s), I invested some of my wage from Cycle Science in a unicycle.  It just arrived today.  One of the lads here, Alex, is quite a wizz on one, and I hope to be able to have him and myself rolling around the Blackburn velodrone over summer between races for a bit of a laugh.

Now I just have to learn to ride the thing - the 1st aid kit is full of Mefix, what could go wrong?!

Details : it's a 24 inch 'Nimbus 2', which I'm told is a good size to learn on and my lardy arse won't be too heavy for it.

Learn to juggle

Once you've mastered the unicycle, learn to juggle and we'll hire you out to kids parties.

Incidentally Harry Potter's broom is a Nimbus. Can yours fly?

Fly?

I managed to ride the length of the corridor at home tonight on it, no mention of the hanging on to the wall all the way though ....
