You can't get up and try it again if you don't fall first.

What I had done last year was ride the moving handrail part of an
escalator... mucho mucho harder than it looks.

A conveyor belt would be possible, but difficult, rollers wouldn't be
possible atall. I do fancy trying a treadmill.

I've ridden my unicycle on a tread mill, the only difference is that you
arent controlling how fast you are going, you cant slow down to try and
regain balance, other than that its not much different.

Are we talking about a regular conveyer belt? Cause form experience I'll
tell you that it's the exact same thing as riding a unicycle.. hell,
I've even ridden down escalators... which is really weird cause it's
like riding and impossibly long stair-case... It gets hellovah bouncy
too.

During the summer of 2004, I was on a research cruise and the only
exercise I got was riding my Muni on the treadmill. It was a nice
treadmill, adjustable speed and incline. It took some getting used to
and a bit more concentration than normal but it was a great workout.

Thanks Jim for posting the pic! That does look like the same unicycle
that holds the current unofficial Cliffside Retrieval record; something
like 200-300' off the Stevens Trail in my area back in January!

oh yeah... the other side just makes you go SUPAH fast... kindof scary
but nowhere NEAR as "interresting" as the other... I did it on a 20" I
bet it's a hoot on a 24". John, you should deffinatly give it a go. 😉

There were a few of those at the Australian Bike Show where we were
doing trials demos and Dan (one of the unicycle trials riders) had a
go. The thing is they offer almost zero resistance!

Hi John;

Partly, the frame is the same, but I had the Beast 29er wheel (KH 29
rim with 190mm profile cranks) for our ride.
