I got schooled by a uni!

Since 2001, over 90,000 cyclist's have joined Cycling Forums to discuss topics from general cycling to equipment, training, racing and travel or vacation destinations (especially in europe during the tour de france). We also feature an great deals in our online store, 100's of articles, classifieds and product reviews.

So last night I'm riding my 2-wheeler (Trek 750 hybrid) through Brooklyn's Prospect Park, maintaining a leisurely 13-15 mph...when this guy on a unicycle just rips past me doing at least 25 mph! He passed me like I was standing still.

Having never seen a unicycle move this quickly, I thought "man, I gotta catch up with this guy and find out how he does it." So I started to pursue him.

I'll be damned if this guy didn't maintain his speed over at least a mile and a half! I could not catch him!!! Incredible!

At least he didn't make it look easy, that would've been totally demoralizing. He was clearly working hard. But still...holy sh!t Batman, I never knew you could move that fast on a unicycle. Major props to that dude, whoever he was.
