Quote of the day (from non-riders)
Winter has settled in here in the Pacific Northwest. The fair-weatherers have put their cycles away until sunnier days and only the hardy and determined are out commuting on their cycles. And then there's me, the lone nut on my route on a unicycle. I do hear about another one or two in town, and of course my riding partner does his commute too. Anyways, one cyclist summed up the general response I get lately as I continue out on the cycle thoroughfares: "Rock on!" -- boisei ------------------------------------------------------------------------ boisei's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/16116 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/38668 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

That is the general response. I got some angry looks as I passed some bike commuters and beat them off the lights on my way to school a day or so ago though haha -- Ducttape '-*buy my shirts*-' (www.zazzle.com/ducttapesunicycle*) '*watch my videos*' (http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=ducttapesunicycle) '*uniman comics*' (http://www.unicyclist.com/forums/showthread.php?t=53444) '*original thread for uniman*' (http://www.unicyclist.com/forums/showthread.php?t=49862) *'sigged quotes' (http://tinyurl.com/29b744)* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ducttape's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/12006 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/38668 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

I told him I did and he said "That's freaking awesome." I said thanks and that I needed to get home and that it was nice talking to him then I pulled out ahead of him going up a hill near my house. -- Ducttape '-*buy my shirts*-' (www.zazzle.com/ducttapesunicycle*) '*watch my videos*' (http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=ducttapesunicycle) '*uniman comics*' (http://www.unicyclist.com/forums/showthread.php?t=53444) '*original thread for uniman*' (http://www.unicyclist.com/forums/showthread.php?t=49862) *'sigged quotes' (http://tinyurl.com/29b744)* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ducttape's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/12006 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/38668 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

Quote of the day (from non-riders)
I recently got my night riding setup and have been hitting our trails at night. I'm using dual 7 watt LED helmet mounted flashlights that put my friend's Nightrider Enduro HID to absolute shame. The beam throw and brightness is somewhere in the overkill/obscene range. As I was finishing a climb I heard a voice just ahead and around the corner say rather incredulously "There's a truck coming up the trail!" A moment later They come into view and realize that it's not a truck. As I pass them by they are finally able to see past the beams and say "HOLY CRAP!" I love the look on the faces of people that can't believe that they just saw a guy on a MUni riding a dirt trail in the middle of the night. -- Trapper ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Trapper's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/10341 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/38668 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |
