Ha the whole title doesn't fit so now I've got you, you might as well answer.
... Unicycle?
Ok so my nose is a normal colour, my feet are a normal size.
As a rule my car stays in one piece, and I tend not to throw confetti over people.
I'm certainly not 'extrovert'.
I shudder at the prospect of being different.
And yet, I kind of have an itch for a unicycle.
Within our weekly routines there's even a perfect time and place to use one, when I bike just won't do and I'm left behind on foot. (kids on other wheeled toys)
Please Bracketeers tell me unicycling is actually a good thing, and 'G' does it all winter, as part of his TdF training.

Just don't commute on it. Once you start the "c" word, then your credibility has gone. And enjoy. It's a cheaper mid-life crisis than a Porsche.Ecrasez l’infame0

To learn to ride a unicycle you need to be young and stupid. Unfortunately I'm not young. My son however is both and has learnt to ride one. Certainly gets some attention. He graduated from a 20" to a 29" wheel so he could cover longer distances.
Go for it, but it does take time, balance, coordination and, of course, stupidity.0 -
Go for it (I fancy one)0
