James' birthday present must be just about the cutest mid-life crises purchase ever. Luckily with the seat right down it fits me too. It is brilliant fun!
[Top photo taken in Kamakura on Sunday. The momiji (maple leaves) may be rubbish this year but the camellia are startlingly good. Although they flower all winter and so provide some welcome colour, usually they are sparse and boring. This year they are incredibly vibrant and abundant.]

Happy Birthday!
Two wheels good, four wheels bad I know - but am not sure it follows that one wheel is better! Good luck ...

I have to maintain the appropriate seat-to-wheel ratio too.

This happened statistically just as expected. This proves that individual events may be predicted with statistics. Happy Birthday!

I am actually giving a unicycle lesson to a 70 year old woman later today!
the key is moving very slowly at first and keeping your torso moving at exactly the same rate as the wheel is pedaled. Sounds obvious but it takes a lot of focus at first
