Can just see these guys doing an ACC protest...might be hard riding to Wellington but it sure would get someones attention.

As an aside, I'm pretty sure unicyles are excempt from helmet laws, as they don't fit the definition of a bicycle...

Defined in local body bylaws as a wheelbarrow!

The primary school I back on to has PE classes and lunch times riding & learning to ride unicycles. The school has different sizes for the kids to learn on.

Thats stupid...

I ride a proper unicycle and I know there are proper races for that. Not a friggen motor bike with a wheel and some skids..

19 years ago i built a motorised one to ride from Poolburn to the brass Monkey. It took over 2 hrs.
Last weekend I rode in the moped run around Lyttleton harbour. It took an hour to get from Lyttleton to Governors Bay. Feeling oK I then hopped back on and got from the wheatsheaf and up Gebbies Pass. Going up is OK, down the other side, no that's another matter with no brakes!
