The ride is on June 3, about 72 miles, but you can ride 100 miles like
Nathan et.al. or less like John Foss. There are about a dozen
unicyclists registered so far. Here's the website:

There is also another thread started by Nathan he

I hope you can come!

I'll probably get the KH armor when my 661's wear out. I'm sure Kris
made them better in virtually every aspect.

As to heat the back of the knee is clear for ventilation, so they
should be COOLER not hotter than 661's.

Even if it is much cooler, I have gotten hit by pinned pedals in the
back of the knee, and let me say I'm very glad I had 661 shinguards on.
I need some protection back there, even if it is just something to
prevent the pins from breaking skin.

I've almost gotten bites in the back of the knee from trying to turn
too sharply before I could turn very well; I fell off the front and
the unicycle went forward between my legs, and my leg got caught by the
crank/pedal. Would have gone very badly if not for the shinguards.

to me they look a lot like the 661s. but with a different strap pattern
and a bit more calf protection. I'd have to try them, see them in
person to say anything more. But from the picture, i'll stick with the
cheaper 661s, especially because i can get those at wholesale, even at
retail though i'm not sure it'd be worth the extra money.



u smart u didnt say any thing contiversial and stated that your
opiniyon was from the pic.
