Hello Cathy,
Great to hear that you found Bliss. So what kind of riding, trails in
the woods?

I was down in the forest today, I'd taken my old 20" to the LBS as the
cotterpins are giving me serious grief.

fat mtb rider "you've lost a wheel"
LBS guy "He gets that a lot you know" which really made me smile

Later on we stopped for a drink two young kids come by

kid 1 "Look a one wheeled bicycle"
kid 2 "No its not its, ... its, ... its a TRICYCLE"

A mountain biker said to me the other day, while passing by,
"Kouzelnik!" Which means, magician! That's a pretty nice comment,
calling me a magician.

A perfect retort springs to mind: "True, but it appears you've picked
up a spare tyre."

"You guys are crazy" (referring to myself and the other unis entered in
the Lifestyles 24 hr race last weekend)

This comment was from a guy biking at night, in the rain, on a
technical trail, in a dark Ontario forest. It takes one to know one.

Last Evening I rode my uni in a park. Lots of people walking, cycling,
sitting on benches, many children playing... Almost everyone tried to
say his "most original comment"... original to them but so common to me
: )

I passed a kid (he was just 2 or 3 years old) on a tricycle and his
mother. She said:
-- Look at that boy - he is riding one wheel!-
He replied:
-- And I want him... to ride the SECOND wheel...-
I dont know what he meant.. But at that moment I didn't have any other
wheels with me so I just rode away.

In the park people said "-wow!-" or "-cool!-" or "-awesome!-" and many
other words like these... A group of friends on the bench were very
impressed. One of them hummed "-Ram-pam-pararararam-pam-para...-" (the
circus song :)) and I replied: "-Wow! I've got this song in my phone!
How do you know?-" Well, actually I haven't, but I just like to reply
in such a way.

An old man told me that I had lost my handlebars... Ugrhh.. Why? Why
are they always say "handlebars"? Ok, few days ago at last somebody
said "where is your other wheel?".. But he is the only who mentioned
the wheel.

Saw two girls learning to spin poi. I stopped, got acquainted, showed
what I could and taugnt them some new elements.
That was me, but later I imagined what they thought:
We were spinning poi in the park and suddenly there appeared a strange
guy on one wheel and began to show such... unbelievable things with
poi...

A few minutes later after I left the girls I heard someone said:
-- ... another clown...-
I wonder who the first clown was. Maybe that girls... I don't know any
other unisyslists living near that park...

I did the World Naked Bike Ride in London on Saturday on my 20". I got
a lot of positive comments throughout, but the only one that stuck in
my memory was: "Big ups to the man on the unicycle".

Also memorable was: "I want to get his *****", from a (female)
bystander with a camera!

Maybe he was referring to your 'lunch stash' down below????
You should have replied 'the same place as you'.

I'd point at my mouth and say "here".

Or something along those lines.

A lot of blokes in England seem to say "That looks like hard work" when
what they think is "That looks difficult but I'm not going to admit
that I can't do it although I feel that I need to give respect to this
one-wheeled god". Am I being ungenerous in my interpetation?

Apparently there were at least two others, but I didn't see them. I
also heard that at least one unicyclist did the Brighton ride. I've no
idea who they were.

I came up with a fun response to *any* derogatory or stupid comment.

Onlooker says whatever: "Hey where's your other wheel?"

Me: "Oh I'm sorry, the correct response would have been, 'that is soooo
cool!', but thanks for playing!" (We would have also accepted, "you
rock!")

Most ppl laughed but one guy (apparently ****** off that I vollyed back
with such a witty comeback!) said, "come back here and say that to my
face!" This guy was so sloshed he could barely stand up!
