Someone breaks a leg while unicycling on Mount Vic!

Snapped femur. Ouch. Can't believe he actually has video of it happening!

Muni Leg Break from Boffy Da Unicyclist on Vimeo.

I've yet to do worse than a sprained ankle - hopefully there are no broken bones in my future.

Munisano's muni video

Munisano has a new video showing some fun-looking muni action - and the obligatory fail reel at the end!

I'm jealous because I'm still waiting for my ankle to recover so I can get out there myself. I was able to walk to work on it today, but it's still a bit sore and swollen. Maybe by the weekend...

Unicycling seen from wheel level

This guy has a video of what offroad unicycling looks like from a camera mounted near the wheel.

I'm not quite sure why he has done this, but it's amusing to watch anyway.

He manages to go insanely fast because that machine has gears. Well, two gears anyway. that's not something I'm likely to be attempting, given the $2500 price tag for a geared hub (if you can even get one). Maybe they will become more commonly used in future, but so far I think I much prefer the smoother ride of my larger wheel anyway - wouldn't want to go back to the 24" even if it was faster.

Honda's U3-X electric unicycle

Here's another electric unicycle prototype, this time from Honda:



Unlike the Enicycle, or even Trevor Blackwell's Eunicycle or the Uno, this one seems to be pitched as an indoor mobility device, rather than as outdoor transportation. Top speed is an incredible 3.7 mph! No plans for production yet.
