Future of Unicycle Road Racing (here's what I think; what do you think?)

Yes I agree.

Records achieved with a 36 guni aren't equivalent to records achieved
with 36 uni, same with 29 guni v 29 uni etc. They are different
records, different classes of machinery.

Similarly, while events like RTL look to be great things to participate
in and achieve personally, in terms of a fair and genuine competitive
event the results don't have a great deal of meaning without a way of
recognizing the differences between geared and ungeared, via different
categories etc

Parity of equipment is a fairly standard building block in most sports.
