  1. North Bay.

    Hand rail at sunset on the waterfront.

    Couple in their 50's walking by.

    Man to wife: Hopefully they kill themselves. That would be good.

    When someone asks you, "wheres the other wheel?". You should promptly
    respond with a witty and maybe funny remark like "Two wheels?!? Thats
    twice as hard."

    Thanks for more sig-line fodder. That is one gem of a reaction.
    Ressurect the quotes from non-riders thread and put that one in.

  9. One time A school bus drove by my house when I was riding, some kid i
    know (and hate with a passion) sticks his head out the window and calls
    me a "F*&%ing clown" rather loudly. next time I ride I'm wearing a
    rainbow wig.

    It's odd I hadn't gotten that comment forever but on my Saturday ride I
    got it maybe 6 times. I'll have to remember the invisible handle bars
    response.

  16. I had a similar response once. Having done 12 miles off-road (or maybe
    12km, i can't remember) on my 20", I was enjoying a very refreshing
    drink at the end of the ride. Hopping off a curb into the empty
    car-park to ride the last 1km home, some 60-year-old shouted at me
    "This is a car park, not a playground. You'll kill yourself if you're
    not careful" in a very menacing tone.

    My response the the grumpy old man: "Yay."

    Just not worth responding to some people at all.

  17. Well, I got one that was kind of rude:

    2 girls were walking down the street and I was unicycling over to 7/11
    for candy and I recognized her from school. She says to me, "You're
    still stupid, walking is easier, duh!" And no, she wasn't being
    sarcastic.

  19. Oddest comment I got was on the way home from some 4th-of-July fireworks
    as I'm riding across a big bridge in town. Lots of cars are driving by
    and I'm on my Coker 36" so plenty of random cheers and what-not. One
    car comes by and a fairly intoxicated sounding individual apparently
    trying to look cool in front of his fellow passengers sticks his head
    all the way out and yells "Nice Unicorn F@#!*t." I almost fell off
    laughing...the first time I witnessed a failed attempt at making fun of
    unicycling.

  20. I live in Newfoundland, and am one of 3 unicyclists in my town. This
    means I get, day after day, old men with fishing gear on going "where's
    yer other wheel by'?" until you just want to take up a sharp object and
    stab! stab! stab!........
    ...........
    ...........
    sorry.
    But once a long while, you get a carful of college girls screaming
    "You're my hero!" and you realize that hell. it's worth it.
