    "Tomorrow mornin 8.30am I am pedalling out from Newhaven Lighthouse with @WorldUnicycle at the start of his final stage of pedalling around the world on one wheel! Come and join us... all bikes welcome, uni's & penny's in particular! It'll be a gentle pace! @AlexDRobertson @edfoc https://t.co/LClOt0iCHH"

    All becomes clear. Chapeau to the fella who has unicycled around the world

    Pics from earlier

    Was nice to tootle down there for a chat to a variety of cyclists (and forumers).

    Three unicyclists, one whom is an offroad orienteering unicyclist who had gears on the unicycle! Pretty impressive.

    Also a chap who arrived on a 1905 Pederson Bike with a handmade hammock saddle (to replace the leather one that it came with over 100 years ago I presume).

    re: RLJ. I'd not be stopping for much if I was that high off the ground/on one wheel. Needs must.
