Hey all. When you guys go unicycling like into town or something how do you carry your unicycle when you go into a shop? I always ride mine everywhere and I just can't find a nice way to carry it. Thanks alot -- Chancock ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chancock's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/14147 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/57115 |

use the code tags, like this: Code: -------------------- \_/ | | --- |*| |^| -------------------- hand goes at the asterisk, tire is the carat (^)... and yeah, this is how I carry the uni too. -- onelesscar "my bounty is as boundless as the sea my love as deep the more i give to thee the more i have for both are endless" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ onelesscar's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/11127 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/57115 |

If it's raining and I'm riding the coker, i just turn it upside down and carry it like that so the tire doesn't hit the ground and make a mess. If i'm not riding my coker then yeah, like everyone else says. -- Hazmat If you fail at unicycling or unicycle tricks, try again, when you try again.

I usually hold the saddle and wheel it around, if I feel the need to carry it, i usually grab one leg of the frame near the top where it is perfectly balanced and carry it around like that. I put it on and angle do the wheel doesn't jab into my leg. -- tomtrevor 01010100 01101111 01101101 00100000 01010100 01110010 01100101 01110110 01101111 01110010 'KEEPIN' IT WHEEL' (www.mediahug.com/bikes) WHEEL WALK ON WATER BLUEGREENORANGEBLACKPURPLEREDWHITEYELLOW Thanks to my sponsers: my mum 'g' (http://www.google.com.au/)'o' (http://www.google.com.br/)'o' (http://www.google.co.uk/)'g' (http://www.google.com.ni/)'l' (http://www.google.to/)'i' (http://www.google.ch/)'n' (http://www.google.com.mt/)'g' (http://www.google.com.na/)'s' (http://www.google.rw/)'!'

Do you know in some movies people carry the unis on their backs? Like in Under No Influence and Into the Thunder Dragon trailers. How do they do that? Do they take off the pedals or something like that? Or do they make some special strap arrangement? -- ivan Read me! thank you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ivan's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/12759 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/57115 |
