Fast Forward

It is now February 2009........and to update you on my unicycling proficiency I can honestly say that I can actually ride now!
I am not, nor ever will be, employed by a circus, unless a deadly virus attacks the human race and I am the only unicycle act left in the shires.

Having said that, the tremendous sense of achievement is mind blowing.......my balance is much better....I no longer need to lean on the bar until the second pint of real ale is nearly finished!......I can now focus for much longer periods on a subject....up to 2 -3 minutes sometimes.
I am fitter and able to stay awake until 8 or 9 pm(at weekends).

The physical scars on my elbows and knees have healed, however, my head is still in disarray even though the skull is repaired( my mates' a welder!).

I have been practicing this weekend and am now learning to 'free mount' and 'hover', this, in unicycle world is comparible with a novice skier, straight off the nursery slopes, attempting going 'off piste' in the dark whilst under the influence of crack cocaine!.
