Requested By My Uncle " Hammy"

The History Of The Unicycle:
 
      A UNICYCLE is a human powered, one wheeled transportation device, similar to a bicycle.
The Unicycle is constructed of :

  • The Wheel 
  • The Cranks 
  • The Pedals 
  • The Fork Style Frame 
  • Seat Post 
  • & The Saddle ( Actual Seat)  
The world's first multiple-stage unicycle race, " Ride The Lobster"  took place in Nova Scotia, June 2008. 14 countries participated and each covered the ground of 800 km. Each team consisted of 3 riders and 1 support person, there were around 35 teams so adding it up that meant 140 people participated, not including the audience. Wow. It is not mentioned who the inventor of the unicycle is, but who ever it was was certainly a mad genius.
