Saw a person on a unicycle yesterday. Not someone you see a lot in the midwest. It looked like he was concentrating hard, but still impressive.

OK... I saw a guy with one of these yesterday at our club's annual big ride. And with the amount of wind we were riding against, it just seemed like it would act as one big sail, and take you backwards! I'm sure that's not true, but it seems that way to look at it.

I've asked that question a lot. It's possible with a strong wind, to go backwards in an airplane. I've wondered exactly how much wind it would take before my bike rolled backward!

Now I've officially seen everything. I saw a guy riding a bike carrying a fairly large TV (balanced on his handlebars) the other day. It was impressive.

Had to revive this thread today, because I just saw 2 people riding with sets of golf clubs. It looked hard.

This bike looks so proud of itself.

The basket makes it look like a delivery bike, but it wasn't parked near a restaurant, and it's in very good condition, so maybe it belongs to a commuter.
