or the Palace of Westminster, security may balk at allowing a unicycle
onto a plane!

Joking apart, Cathwood, make sure you let the air out of your tyre.
The aircraft hold will be at low pressure. It's only about 5 - 10 psi
difference, but quite sudden, and you don't want any nasty banging
noises as you take off. Don't try to carry tools or a pump etc. in
your hand luggage as they will be stopped and confiscated by security.
Baggage handlers do NOT treat baggage with tender concern as if it
were their own, so pack the unicycle carefully.

Lastly, we all demand photos of you unicycling in Turkey, complete
with yashmak, cheap carpet, and cup of incredibly strong sweet coffee.
Extra bonus points if you're carrying a Greek flag. *


I'll do my best.

thanks for the tyre advice. I took the uni to Morrocco in April. I
didn't know about letting the tyre down. It could have been nasty!
