+Pharisee Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 Ho hum.... just get a message telling me that 'it' can't download a suitable 'decompressor'..... Thought they only had them on big ol' diesel engines. Quote
+CuplaKiwis Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 Now that's just wrong on so many levels!! Nice one. Quote
+mongoose39uk Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 Nice one! Reminder to self, learn to ride your 40th birthday present more than 20 feet! Quote
Nediam Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 Fantastic Video! Really cheered up my lunchbreak. Well done!!!!! Quote
+aRRKS Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 Absolutely brilliant !!!!! Well done to Stu and Sarah Quote
+Chris n Maria Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 That blokes a nutter......Oi Nutter behave..... Quote
NickPick Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 Great video! I can see a rash of unicycle / soap box cart / etc friendly caches appearing now! Quote
+stu_and_sarah Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 (edited) Although don't tell anyone... it was a public footpath, not a bridleway. Still - I'll only have to pay half the fine, I guess. It seems my idiomatic use of English is flawed though: apparantly red rag to a bull doesn't quite mean what I meant. Ho hum. You get the idea Stu Edited May 5, 2005 by stu_and_sarah Quote
+MarkGPX Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 Now if he was juggling flaming torches at the same time I'd be impressed... I notice that this cache has the symbol for "No Snowmobiles". Could this be Stu's next challenge? Quote
+Simply Paul Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 Pure comedy genius! What skill, what camerawork, what music! Congrats to you both SP P.S. Red Rag To A Bull: Something that seems destined to produce an adverse, as well as the reverse reaction. Example: "You can't get 14 people in a Mini" - Result, 14 people in a Mini. I think your use of the phrase is fine, and I should know, I'm a sort of part time journalist type fing. Quote
+John Stead Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 Splendid - now can I get a unicycle in my Smartie? Quote
+stu_and_sarah Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 Splendid - now can I get a unicycle in my Smartie? I got this one in the mini... So if you can't do it, you're not trying hard enough. Although I did think it would have to go on the roof at first. But no, my oft quoted "You can get anything in a mini" held true. Cheers, Stu Quote
+Team Maddie UK Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 Brilliant!! That gave Lynn and I good laugh while we recovered from cutting the grass etc. Very professional job on the movie as well. Surely, this must be some sort of record? Posting it on the Geocaching Today might be a good idea. Regards, Martin, Lynn and Maddie Quote
+Kitty Hawk Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 Your unicycle is much taller than my Pashley - mine has direct transmission - and you have an offroad tyre as well, I guess that makes the difference eh? I was always wary of the tall ones, I imagine they're more difficult to mount. Liked the music as well, never heard of Goldfrapp before. Very good Quote
+stu_and_sarah Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 (edited) Your unicycle is much taller than my Pashley That's only one of them - I sold it a few weeks ago, so I won't be caching on it. The one I rode to the cache was my DM Ringmaster Pro: 20" wheel with track tyre! Not great on grass! I used to have 8 wheels - 2 of which were Pashley Mountain Unicycles, but now I'm down to two. The other is my Ultimate Wheel: which made an appearance in some of the pictures at the Winchester HCC Event in 2003. Oh, and yes, the 5-foot ones are seriously hard to get on without something to lean on. And pretty hard with. Obsessed, me? Cheers, Stu Edited May 5, 2005 by stu_and_sarah Quote
+The Roos Posted May 6, 2005 Posted May 6, 2005 LOL - woz willing you to cycle through big puddle! Quote
NickPick Posted May 6, 2005 Posted May 6, 2005 LOL - woz willing you to cycle through big puddle! I was expecting Stu to cycle down the hill, out of control, and end up sitting in the pond at the bottom, surrounded by ducks (In great "Last of the summer wine" style) Quote
+stu_and_sarah Posted May 6, 2005 Posted May 6, 2005 I was expecting Stu to cycle down the hill, out of control, and end up sitting in the pond at the bottom, surrounded by ducks (In great "Last of the summer wine" style) I have to admit that the first thing the crossed my mind as I came over the brow of the hill was "Oh poop!" What isn't clear from the film is that the fence between the downhill and the pond is barbed wire. "Double poop!" Stu Quote
+lathama Posted May 6, 2005 Posted May 6, 2005 I think another unicycle challenge cache may be on the way over the summer when i get home! Just need to find the right location! Quote
+Nellies Knackers Posted May 6, 2005 Posted May 6, 2005 Sorry to pee on your fireworks but according to the text you should have been carrying a pushchair at the same time! Top marks on being completely insane. Quote
+stu_and_sarah Posted May 6, 2005 Posted May 6, 2005 you should have been carrying a pushchair at the same time! I did consider taking an ironing board Stu Quote
+wigglesworth Posted May 6, 2005 Posted May 6, 2005 Stu and Sarah We really appreciate the work you put into the video. It madefor great entertainment!! Peter Quote
+Bill D (wwh) Posted May 6, 2005 Posted May 6, 2005 That's a really good video - thanks for the entertainment! Quote
+The Hokesters Posted May 7, 2005 Author Posted May 7, 2005 I did consider taking an ironing board Just because you have moved to the home county of extreme ironing doesn't mean you have to take it up! Quote
+McDeHack Posted May 7, 2005 Posted May 7, 2005 Great entertainment. Now I will have to get one of those unicycles to add to my bike collection. Ebay here I come. Quote
Mittellegi Posted May 8, 2005 Posted May 8, 2005 (edited) you should have been carrying a pushchair at the same time!
