The Fine Line

UNicycle

This morning  - at 5:45 a.m. - I saw a woman riding a unicycle and wearing a head lamp.  A unicycle.  In the dark.  On uneven terrain.  Didn't she know that she could fall and hurt herself?  As I jogged past her I thought a lot about her.  Was she brave? Was she adventurous?  Or was she just plain crazy?

Probably all of the above.

Seeing her made me think about who these unicyclists are and what makes them tick.  I searched the internet and found lots of unicycle sites, unicyclist communities, unicycle clubs, and even something called the Arizona Muni Weekend 2015.

Come to think of it, we are all like the unicyclist.

We are all part brave, part adventurous, and just plain crazy.

There really is a very fine line...
