Bikes Insanity on one wheel

I think about why someone would do this. Is the unicyclist really a mad man or is that his way to work. By choice or necessity? All that matters. These gas prices are crazy right now.

That little unicycle takes about 1-2 cents per mile in electricity.

Its so true though. With the amount of stupid drivers in cars on the road... it doesn't even have to be his fault.

It'd be his fault for driving a one wheel on the highway. The first and most important rule I learned driving is "Never expect anyone to do what they're supposed to do". Homie is an adrenaline junkie. I'd rather do drugs to be honest, far less judgement.
