Unicycle I can ride around the track now, as well as ride a bit on the sidewalk and street (at night, less cars). My personal record distance in one go is about 200m. I need to relax more, weight off the pedals and on the seat, and keep the pelvis forward. I also need to …
It’s almost the end of the year, and just like every other end of year time, I’m busy at work. We did get a little lunch break, so I’ve been making a bit of progress on the unicycle. Reminders (to myself, the beginner): Weight (pelvis) forward and back straight Keep pedaling Flail arms, really Commit! …

Finally I did it. I borrowed the bike and changed the drivetrain to have a really low gear ratio. It didn’t take me long to get used to riding fixed. It’s definitely a lot more fun. The way I have it (and even with the transitional gearing of 44t/22t) it’s easier to ride up hills …
No way I was going to throw my printer out. All I had to do was clean the mirrors and lenses. They had some fine dust stuck in them. I wonder if using cheap toner had anything to do with getting the printer so dusty that cyan would be all over the page and magenta …
