bags
unicycle bags seem to be the next cool thing. I think this one is too thin to provide decent protection.
I rather have my cheap and strong US AF bags, and have my clothes protect the unicycle.

38
I've been to Seattle to ride my unicycle, but never been under fire of a .38 caliber firearm while unicycling.

But what is this pictogram saying?

4th of july
On independence day you have parades everywhere, and in many you'll see unicycles. This guy carries on his dad's 35 year long tradition of participating in the oldest continiously running neighbourhood parade.

SWAT
I had a friend who was juggler in the Russian Army. America has has their programs to. A couple of big countries have unicyclists in army unit's for serious special operations. But you hardly ever see any picture.
Today Engadget shows a pic of the Chineze SWAT on "Segway's".
Dunno I think 'less is more', and 1 wheel without guns is more cool.

re-inventing the wheel
The unicycle stems from the pennyfarthing. In those days there were no cyclepaths; each time you'd hit a tree branch, you'd learned some unicycling. Then the rear wheel was removed, followed by the bars, and finaly the wheelsize reduced to a more manouvrable size.
In 2008 we have inventors who add helping wheels to a unicycle.

bilangual v monolingual
Recently the science part of the NYT told me that children raised in 2 languages later will be significant better in math. Now a proffesor states that speaking only one language is like riding a unicycle.
Obvious the man is no unicyclist, has no interrest in math, physics nor biology, and apparently the word "monolingual" is not even in his whateverangual vocubalary.

birthday queen
motorcycle FMX show motorcycle FMX show Today is also the birthday of queen Beatrix, and therefor the national holiday of The Netherlands, celebrated with many events everywhere.
I was part of a big show-program that also had lined-up a FMX show of Morgan Carlson from Sweden.
And guess what; he is a unicyclist to!
In between rainfalls and with too much wind, they made it evident:
no pain no glory (see picture on the right).

birthday
Today, April 30, is the birthday of Claude Shannon (1916-2001), another person to wonder wether the unicycling or the unicyclists make the unicycle-scene endlessly interesting.

another motor
Something with 2 wheels, and a computer controller is not a unicycle (but still beatfull). Being both unicyclist and programmer I wonder how emergency-stops are handled. Still I rather drive a monowheel.

divorce
dumpyourwifenow.com: I don't know about you, but when I think of happy people, I picture a couple holding hands and riding their unicycles together through a park; with the wind blowing through their hair - and The Turtles singing "Happy Together" emanating from their ipods.

lolly
unicycle lolly
Yesterday I had the opportunity to make a custom lolly by myself.
Of course that would be a unicycle lolly...
...which turned more to a cooker lolly.

again stolen
I told you before: if a unicycle gets stolen then it's news
(which causes a high ratio found back stolen unicycles!).
