  1. I now have something else to occupy my time as I go to deploy overseas.
    I am not really sure if any other military personnel have ever brought a
    unicycle to a combat zone, but I really am going to enjoy it. I even
    convinced someone else I work with to get one also, so we can ride
    around the base together, with just about everyone wondering "what is
    wrong with those idiots?". I am not even sure if unicycles are allowed
    on military bases overseas, but if people can ride bikes, why can't I
    get around on just one wheel? And I will be sure to post some pictures
    every once in a while so people can see how unicycles are being used in
    Iraq.

  2. A rider with the username "Kraze" was posting from Iraq but is now back
    in the states. Maybe he will see this, even better PM him.
    The uni should be a great diversion there.

    Thanks for serving. I wish you good balance and a steady hand. 😉

  8. sounds pretty awesome... even better than riding, bring a trials
    maybe?

    as much as it shouldn't have... the first thing that came to mind when i
    thought of a unicyclist in the military, i thought of peter griffins
    "sometimes its better not to fit in" followed by a clip of a bunch of
    soldiers, and peter dressed as a clown* saying "you guys are stupid,
    they'll be looking for army guys"

    *clown is the thing i shouldn't have thought... because the instant
    association of clowns and unicycles annoys me so much
