i live in the town centre in a place where drinking is a verry popular activity, i have a practice hall in the evening. and i ride my unicycle their and back. so most of the people who ask for a go are drunk and i say no. also i'm quite often in a hurry, so i don't have the time, other times i'm just bored of people asking for a go just because they want to show off in front of their mates, not because they actualy want to learn, so i say no. you'd have to live in small town scotland to understand just how irritating/worthless some of the people here are when their drunk. -- evilewan - death or glory -- evilewan. see the rec.sport.unicycling maintainance FAQ @ http://evilewan.unicyclist.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ evilewan's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/1047 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/26603 |

There is one reason to say just plain "No" ...... Would you go up to a stranger and ask if you could try out his car or motorcycle or girlfriend or whatever?...... seems to me they probably should have the manners to not ask in the first place... -- MUNIYETI ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MUNIYETI's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/4183 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/26603 |

"dustin" wrote in message ... After most of my shows (back when I did shows) I leave out several uni's and give everyone the opportunity to try them out. I have 3 20's with tame pedals, a 20 mod trials, a 24x3 MUni and a 24in racing uni that I let em have a go at. The last three have nasty pedals and I give people a good warning about those. I too am happy to let people have a go, but they have to receive the old government health warning from me first. Adults I choose not to help too much, being ever mindful that even in the UK compensation law is being used at times for idiotic claims. ( Anyone else read about the burglar who claimed compensation successfully, having cut himself on the window he broke to get in....wrong type of glass fitted!) "At your own risk". is emphasised greatly for would be riders of my uni! I don't use pin pedals, as I have generated enough damage and lost enough blood from the backs of my own legs with fairly innocuous looking rubber pedals. It astonishes me, the pedals some people use. I admit their skill levels are far higher than my own (at least in some cases) , but riding with a medieval mantrap on each crank is not for me at the moment. I'll stick with the girly pedals..
