Think it is the same man who rides down hundreds of steps on a long stone staircase....?

Down is easy. Hopping UP them is the real challenge.

Re: Day in the life

Another great video Terry

A question for you if you don't mind ......
You often cycle over some very rocky terrain which must be a strain on your legs, do you ever suffer with any leg problems due to the strain you put yourself through?

Thanks Mags! I really don't have too much leg strain, unless I have a bad fall resulting in an injury, and I've had my share! The brake helps a lot to control steep descents, and I can actually ride downhill a lot faster with a brake. Without a brake, I would risk losing control especially if going too fast, since backpressure only has limited control when you hit the really steep downhills. But the high volume tire absorbs a great deal of bumps and impacts, so that also help a lot.

Let's hope your brake never fails!

How many unicycles do you own and are they special ones for different course conditions?

Yeah each is different. I have about 12 or so, from a 19" trials, two 24s for more technical trails, the 26er you see in the video, a geared 26er, and a super fat tire 26er, a 29er made for road climbing, and two 36ers. Also a few others but the ones mentioned I ride the most.

Yikes! That steep climb really was steep!

And I'm sorry, but I have to ask, do you get a sore butt - so many bumps!
It must be worse than a two-wheeler?
