Hi all,
In the great north (Montreal), we had a glimpse that there
might be life after winter, yet we are still in this
netherland where it is somewhat cold ( to -10C), icy, windy
and generally unfavorable for unicycling.
So last weekend, in a little break from the torrid weather
and with dry streets, I decided it was time to see how my
skills had deteriorated throughout the winter and got the
uni out. It is with great surprise that I realised I
actually improved, with no practice whatsoever during the
winter. This is another proof of an old concept of mine that
training is overrated... Did anybody else ever noticed this
phenomena?
I also acted on another lifetime goal of mine: commuting by
unicycle. I changed job and ordered a Coker, which is
currently in the trusting hands of UPS, to be received
sometime next week. I am now looking forward to tame the
beast, which may prove difficult considering my
capabilities and test ride my projected path, about 5 miles
with a fairly big hill.
We shall see how it goes.
Jocelyn
