What's so dumb about it? It's a tandem unicycle. It would be very
challenging to ride with two people on board, especially if both people
are actively controlling the unicycle. I consider it a cool novelty
unicycle. Kudos to the people who build and ride unique unicycles like
that.

Where did you get the photo?

Here's the picture as a JPG:

both learn how to ride that thing at the same time!

People who have ridden tandem unicycles like that have commented that it
is easier when one person does the majority of the pedaling and control
while the other person just goes through the motions and keeps a very
very light touch on the pedals.

I've seen that pic on David Poznater's gallery. It was from solme
juggling convention a few years ago.

Andrew: John foss has a pic on his site of a pair of Japanese riders
doing tandem.

I want to see people offroad that. Imagine how hard Northstar would've
been...
