Default An early end to a long season


I've been unicycling to work for the past few years regardless of rain,
snow, or anything else. However, this winter I was planning on taking a
break from unicycling. Ever since RTL, my knees have been pretty sore,
particularly when climbing hills, so I think some time off the wheel
might do my body some good in the long run. I wasn't planning on packing
my coker away until there was snow on the ground, but it looks like I'll
have to start walking to work, starting immediately.

Riding home today, I could feel some sort of softness in the saddle
handle, like pulling up on the handle was a little too much, y'know? I
checked it out when I got home, and saw that the steel plate in the
front of the bracket on my purple RTL edition T7 (which is only 5 months
old) just split across the middle. I looked at it a little more, and the
rails are bent down a little in front. The handles themselves have
probably dropped an inch or so.

I know I'm not the first person to crack that front plate, and then
wonder, "how the hell did that happen?" It's just a bummer that I'll be
off the unicycle so soon, and that I'll have to find a good welder or
replace the thing.
