  3. Good luck, Bob. That's going to be one fast wheel. Hang onto a couple of
    things and try to get a feel for the fast response before you let go
    and take off. If you have two things that are at about the height of a
    chair back you can hang onto those, one with each hand. Slowly roll the
    wheel back and forth. It will feel very weird. Make sure you have a lot
    of room when you take off because you're going to need to make big
    corrections.

  4. I suggest learning to wheel walk the GUni first. That will tame it.
    Then you can go to the pedals once the GUni has lost its wild edge.

  7. Hah yeah seriously, when I was first trying to learn how to ride the
    uber coker (which I believe you made?) I tried to freemount it and
    failed many many times. I had learned to ride a 29er on the first try
    and same with a coker (I even rode it home from buying it), but it took
    me about 20 minutes to get used to Da Uber Coker.

  12. Good luck Bob, and remember that it will likely be a work-in-progress.
    Don't fret if you don't get everything right on your guni the first
    time.
    And if you catch the invention bug, it might keep the wheel in your
    head turning for the rest of your life!

    Nothing really, i just lived through that era, and remember the Movie
    when it first came out. I like *some* of their music, bnut I must admit
    I'm much more a fan of classic rock.

    I don't think they called it "classic" rock back then. 😉

    "I used to be with it, but then they changed what "it" was. Now, what I'm with
    isn't it, and what's "it" seems weird and scary to me."

    It's strange how many radio stations I used to listen to as a kid just stopped
    buying new music one day, and slowly became "oldies" stations merely by never
    updating their playlist.

    But enough of this threadjacking, let's see some vids of the new GUni in action!

    I did. But I wasn't referring to "then" anyway; I was meaning the
    present day. And surely the Beatles were considered "classic rock' by
    1978, almost a decade after the broke up. Ok let's see that Guni in
    action!
