My first gallery.

Nice, I like the 'Robin Hood' sculpture.

Hey there,

I'm moving up there soon. Nottingham that is. We'll have to meet up for
a ride. I'm going to be living in Beeston and hopefully having lots of
time to ride.

A lot of my pictures don't have any unicycles in either, but they're
taken on rides which is the point.

Gone and got yourself a digital camera then Mike. You’ll have to take
snaps of people you meet on your lone rides though I wouldn’t entrust
them with your camera to take photos of you, especially in some of the
places you ride. We’ll have to arrange a ride especially now that there
is…

…another unicyclist in Notts.

Why you moving to Beeston Joe? If you need any info on the area just ask
(I know Beeston and the surrounding area well).

Yep I do think a mini Munimeet would be in order.

Another unicyclist in Notts and moving to the Beeston area? Would that
be to the University, Plessey, or the remains of Boots?

Maybe we can form a unicycle gang with a cool name ;0)

Get in touch when you're this way. My riding's not as good as my
publicity, but I know lots of places where I can watch you and be
humbled.

I'm moving up because Penny (girlfriend) is doing a phd at Nottingham,
hence living in Beeston.

I'm probably going to be working in Sandiacre, which coincidentally is a
nice unicycle commute away from Beeston.

I'll post up here once I've got moving in and stuff sorted out, probably
early september.

I like seeing the pictures of the places you've described so well in
your ride reports. In some ways the pictures spoil the mental image I
had of the places, but in other ways the pictures make it all the more
clear.

One thing you might want to do is make a master gallery to hold all of
your other galleries. It will make it easier for you and others to find
all your galleries. Give your master gallery a good name like
"gallery.unicyclist.com/Mikefule" and move your other galleries as
nested galleries in your master gallery.

You can use the Gallery Remote Java applet to move the galleries. The
"Move album to..." feature in the Gallery Remote applet actually works
so the process is easy.

Thanks for that. I'm not convinced by the gallery thing yet. All my
write ups are true, and I never make up any of the details, but I tell
them in a certain way, from a certain angle. All the people I meet are
real, the comments are real, the places are real. I don't mix 'n' match
people or events from different rides to make one good story. However,
I try to make a story or a cod philosophical point out of each event.
Sometimes the descriptions are deliberately grotesque, parodic or
ironic. I wonder if the photos simply spoil that.

The other thing is that there is some merit in the criticism that a load
of photos of places is of no real interest to other unicyclists. I
can't take photos of myself riding unless I artificially pose them, and
use the camera's timer. We'll see how I go. Perhaps I might simply
embed the occasional photo in a story as I tell it.

I did 33 miles today on the Coker. It rained heavily for the last 11
miles. How I laughed. I didn't take any photos, but at least the
camera survived the experience! Write up follows when time allows.

I think it would be a good idea to embed links to photos from your
gallery of the places you write about so people who struggle with mental
pictures (that’ll be me at least) get some visual stimulation to your
far from prose write-ups. I would say photos wouldn’t spoil your
descriptions for me so if you used links people could choose to click or
not.

As for riding photos maybe we could take photos of each other on a ride
now we both have digital cameras, long shots only though 😉

Cheers, Gary

Yes, must get together for a ride. Time flies by, then suddenly it's
Autumn again. I'm away for a few days, then we'll see what we can do.
