A tube in the hydration pack is extra weight on me. A tube on the frame
is directly borne by the unicycle.
(An added benefit, I admit, is it adds to the image of "serious distance
rider" and hopefully affects the reactions I get form other cyclists.)
As for the seat, I've done similar distances on the Viscount. The
standard Miyata is reasonably comfortable as long as you sit carefully
and arrange all your bits properly. I once tried a rough and ready air
seat and found it more trouble than it was worth. I tried a Velo and
found the deep padding a problem: my pods kept floating to the surface
of the foam.:eek:
