And I looked at what I can add to have free shipping. After I told my mum that they have unicycles she told me: "It will be f-ing awesome, buy it."

So as responsible, grown up man I am now owner of unicycle.

My then-sixtyish year old dad bought a unicycle. He also bought a pair of ski poles to help him balance while learning to ride it by traveling up and down a long hallway in his home.

This doesn't really add anything to the conversation, but I've always found it funny and rarely had an opportunity to share it.

Ski poles? It sounds dangerous I would impale myself with them.

I don't think there was anyone around at the time who suggested that it was a good idea, heh.

At the time, my mom - his wife of 27 years - had recently died and I think he was trying to find himself again. Unicycles with ski poles weren't the only odd decisions he made.
