This is what I have:

3 Dustin Schaap 21:33:80 Fixed 36"/100mm cranks
4 Tony Melton 21:36:80 Sclumpf 36"/140mm cranks
5 Sam Wakeling 21:46:10 Fixed 36"/97mm cranks
6 Ken Looi 22:00:80 Sclumpf 29"/125mm cranks
7 Thomas Olsen 22:14:90 Schlumpf 29"
8 Arne Tilgen 22:22:20 geared 36"
9 Roger Davies 22:38:80 Fixed 36"
10 Scott Wilton 22:40:50 Fixed 36" (either 90mm or 100mm cranks,
can't remember)

I think the Schlumpfs had an advantage on this course also. I was
sitting quite comfortably halfway between Chuck and the chase group
until a kid walked in front of me and I slammed into him at 30km/hr
On a fixed wheel I think I would have been in the Beau/Dustin/Tony/Sam
chasing group...there's no way I would have pulled ahead.



Probably not very important but what happened to the kid?

Ooh, Tony has a Schlumpf 36 set up now? He must have got his hands on
that KH 36 frame fast. I'll have to ask him how the 140s felt because
I was thinking about using that length for my geared 36 when I get my
hub back from florian and the kh 36 frame.

I am gonna have to keep my eyes peeled for the marathon results.

We both landed down a bank, but we were OK apart from a few scrapes and
probably a tyre mark on the kid.

James...I sent Tony my original 36" Schlumpf frame with the Torque
lever attachement, and he built it up just before Unicon.

Bad luck. But good to hear no one was injured. If the kid is smart he
will ask you to sign his tyre marked T-shirt. Not many people get run
over by a unicycle.
