I saw that too. I spent forever searching that book in the store for it,
but I couldnt find anything about any unicycles.

It's not even in the "strange/unusual sports" chapter.

Mystery Guinness rider... and on a Coker - if I didn't see this post, I
would have assumed it has to be john_childs!

Well, maybe it is John... and he just wants all of us to see his
picture!

Can't it be Ken Looi, who owns the 24 hr record?

Doesn't look like Ken, unless he's gained a few years and pounds.

And black socks with riding clothes? We can probably narrow it a bit
based on that too.

That T-shirt must also be a bit of a clue.

What's the bet John Foss not only knows the guy but also has him on
speed-dial and once dated his siter?

I feel quite sure it's not a coker, maybe not even a 29er

It is definitely a coker. The attached image is pretty crappy which may
be causing a bit of confusion. (sorry I don't have a scanner so made do
with a digital camera shot of the book). On the original image you can
make out the very distinctive coker tyre tread pattern plus you can
also tell it is an airfoil rim. That means our mystery rider is not a
small person.

hmmm, somebody not small who rides a coker... who could it be?

I only know one unicyclist big enough to make a coker look like a 29er,
and he's been posting since 97

I hadn't seen the picture when I made that suggestion. Because of the
way I usually read and post here (using Usenet, writing offline) the
pic was not yet posted, even though the time of my response is 46
minutes later. I agree it doesn't look like Ken. But it seems to be a
Coker indeed, see attached processed picture. That must be a very tall
man.
