Many years ago I saw a Manchester courier with a BMX, modded with a rear mech and a brompton height seat post, I thought with SPDs it might make an interesting mount for those with a fexlible aproach to road traffic regs or even physics.
Tell you what I really want, actually, is a unicycle.

Technically, of course, I could still get one even despite having given up  buying bicycles for Lent.

I will ignore the unicycle comment till I can work out how to make hub gears work on them (more of interest to me for an ordinary P/F)

Oh, and I got very shakey at the end of the ride home yesterday, don't know if was blood sugar or the laptop in a single pannier but my line were all over the place, not good.

Right, off to Simon's, I'm going to be you for the day and do a bit of firebrox-ing

I've got one you could borrow Dan, if you're interested. It's sitting in my loft gathering dust at the moment....
