174 miles in 20 hours on Unicycle

[unigeezer]

Here are a few clips from what ended up as a 20 hour, 174 mile ride, which started at 8:30 am on 6/2, & ended at 4:30am, on 6/3/16. I had planned it as a 24 hr/200 mile ride, but the saying, “Ride till you puke” became my reality. It was still the most amazing and rewarding experience I’ve ever had riding a uni!

After watching the finished video, it makes me want to go out and try it again! Big thanks to those who made a donation to the “Make-A-Wish” foundation, a very worthy cause for children afflicted with life-threatening medical conditions.

Thanks, nice video and good job overall. I'd like to see a bit more about the cycle, especially the handlebar arrangement.

Huge well done. It would probably take me that length of time to drive 174 miles!

I really want to post a jokey comment about failing the last 26 miles, but I can't...that's seriously impressive!

Could you give us some specs of your unicycle please?

That is some serious riding. Well done.

Imagine what you could achieve when you can finally afford the rest of the bike....

Excellent, and very inspirational 11 days prior to me attempting 200+ miles on two wheels.

Chapeau!

Thanks guys!

The unicycle is made by Kris Holm "KH" and the following specs:
7075 series aluminum frame
Zero "Q" isis cranks
Isis drive Hub
Carbon fiber flat profile saddle
Nimbus "Stealth 2" 42mm rim, 36h.
KH T-handle with Profile T2+ aerobars added.

Btw, Was back in the saddle for a double marathon distance ride after just 11 days since the last long ride. Think it was too soon, and only getting about 5 hours sleep the night before couldn't have helped. Still fun though!
