  1. While on a recent working holiday to Tasmania (Australia's Island
    State), I saw this picture in a shop window. It was part of an
    advertisement for a taxi company.

    I want one!

    But I want lots of things that I have no real use or need for. Damn
    consumerist behaviour.

    Wayne.

  4. I just saw one of McLean's crashes on TV today. It was on the Discovery
    Channel for Monster Garage or Monster Nation or something like that (I
    wasn't paying attention to the TV till I saw the monowheel). It showed
    video of him riding his big V8 monocycle in a residential neighborhood
    and loosing it during a turn. It did a couple of odd sideways flips and
    it looked like it may have gerbiled too (the seat goes upside down and
    tries to do a complete revolution inside the wheel).

    It wasn't a high speed crash. But it was still a violent and dangerous
    tumble. He could have been crushed by the wheel or the engine.

    If you want one you can buy one from McLean. He sells them. Several
    different sizes from small to big.
