Do rucksacks also have hardened steel sharp bits sticking out and/or covered in black grease as well? Clive George wondered: Do unicycles? and JNugent responded: If they operate in the same way as bicycles, the answer must be "yes". Not that you see too many of them. Ahem! I see 5 every time I enter my workshop. None of them has hardened steel bits sticking out, nor is any of them covered in black grease.

Now, why dance on a pinhead regarding why/why not unicycles are allowed? That's the intent of the original poster as I see it - to stir things up. No, actually - i have a friend with a unicycle who's planning to visit, and we were wondering about what his options for getting about town were (he's not quite up to yiking all arouns town yet). I asked because i wanted to know the answer, no other reason. tom -- What's the secret to our success? Shouting Robots! People love it when robots yell at them! |

No but seriously - utl is pretty much the best place to ask questions related to the London Underground, and this question was related to the London Underground. Seemed the obvious thing to do to me. tom -- What's the secret to our success? Shouting Robots! People love it when robots yell at them! |

Tom Anderson wrote: Can you take a unicycle on the London Underground? As I recall the byelaws specifically state "bicycle" and its derivations. That's the crux of it, i think. A recent thread (on urc, i think) established that for national rail trains, the rules say 'cycles', and cover trikes; those rules presumably also cover unis, even if that's inappropriate. I would have thought LU's rules would be the same, but i thought i'd check. I know, i'll email TfL. tom -- What's the secret to our success? Shouting Robots!

Helen Deborah Vecht ) gurgled happily, sounding
much like they were saying : You obviously don't see them, or look at them then. Unicycles are driven directly without gears, cog or a chain... Surely that depends on the height of them? http://www.cobr.co.uk/acatalog/mosscrop_unicycle.jpg looks to me to be chain driven. |
