I\’m not a one-wheeled wonder; and I never thought of doing a hundred miles by — skateboard? Well, it really would not surprise me if somebody has done it, or at least tried.

But several years ago I began to wonder whether anyone had done a century by unicycle. Following is part of the text of the blog I posted about it at the time:

\”…Sure enough, some people have. It makes me think that my century on an adult tricycle isn\’t such a big deal. The trike at least had a big basket, so I could carry stuff with me. On a unicycle I, for one, wouldn\’t be able to take along much at all.

Maybe I shouldn\’t criticize, but this guy should have gotten a helmet-mounted headlight for the ride. Then he wouldn\’t have had to wear out his cell phone trying to get a little bit of light. Otherwise, I say Good for him. If few people have done centuries on adult tricycles, I\’m sure even fewer have done it on a unicycle!\”

So that\’s a one-wheeled wonder; but I\’ll stick with two wheels, myself. A single wheel is too unstable for me; and I can just see a skateboard skidding out from under me!
