  2. Gus-

    2K!! You rule. How much riding time do you have left in MN? Why does Max
    have to post for you, do you need help with the big words?

  4. That's a fantastic achievement! I'm amazed too at how much tread your
    tire still has. It looks in better shape at 1700 than mine does at 500.

    Max, do you know what he runs for tire pressure? Ultra-firm?

    That is because Gus has a harem of girlie men roll out the red carpet in
    front of him as he rides. The tire never touches pavement.

  6. Congrats Gus on the big 2000. You are inspiring me. I may need to set
    some mileage goals for 2005.

    I believe he is also the maker of one of Tony Melton's unicycles. The
    red one if I'm not mistaken.

    I figure it's pretty clear that offroad unicycling is a stupid thing to do - joemarshall

  11. I think he runs his tire in the 40-45 psi range, but I couldnt be
    certain. Maybe I'll remember to ask him tonight.🙄
