Mate of mine rides this bloody thing. Offroad.

He's riding the 50 mile version of the Great Notts Bike Ride in a few weeks a) to raise money for charity and b) because he's a loony.

(Should anyone feel like sponsoring him to donate to the British Heart Foundation and Prostate Cancer UK, his page is at http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/team/3rdWheel )

Cheers.

I thought we all did? 😆

I view my 29er Bike and Uni as my little wheels

The big wheel cruises over everything and has a massive tyre foorprint front to back so has great grip on the custom waltworks tyre, couples with the massive flywheel effect of the big wheel if you keep it straight it storms through foot deep mud

I ride 40 mile off road rides on this and my leg armour rubs my skin raw so I have given up using it, however that has it's drawbacks as well lol

Unicyclists are ace.

I was on the 36" trend 3 years ago though and built this....
