- JC -- Man of Steel
A thread popped up at RSU about the effect of unicycling on self esteem. Somehow the topic drifted off into a love-fest over John Childs' abilities. Hey, I agree with everything said, except John's own comments. He actually gets a thrill in stomping the competition. Personally I like being stomped, it means he considers me 'some' competition.
One example of this, although highly disguised, happened back in January or so. It snowed 4-6 inches. In Bellevue/Seattle that is rare since we are so close to the water. John shows up after having ridden for about an hour or so. He wants to go for a ride. I can't resist. I suit up and before we leave a few pics are taken. Those are linked below. We ride for about 45 minutes or so. Where the snow is thick, the effort requires seems enormous. My heart rate was out of site. I was breathing much to heavily by the end of the ride, and kind of caught a throat cold from the experience.
When we got back to my house, John refuse a ride home, even refused a beer! He just rode home, another 45-60 minutes.
