I just came across this site http://www.sidewaysbike.com !

Not a unicycle, but we're all interested in strange pedalled transport, and it does use what appears to be a Kris Holm saddle with rail adapter :)

I've seen some home-made bikes before, but this bloke's a nutter - makes Sheldon Brown seem quite sane :eek:

Although he could quite possibly be a contender for "The World's Best Facial Hair Award"

Wow! That thing is crazy!

The first one looks suicidal if he ever fell over backwards, that bar would keep you attached, and you would hit the ground with the bike on top of you, no?

Grazy? Yes, I agree firmly on that.
I think the suicide is more comming from the right (or should I say back?). I would not consider riding it trough Amsterdam with it. Though he did do that!

He's using a viscount and a KH seat. I wonder if he is a unicycler too.

There recently was an article in the Seattle Times (http://archives.seattletimes.nwsource.com/cgi-bin/texis.cgi/web/vortex/display?slug=whisker16m&date=20050418&query=mustache) regarding a local Whisker Club. Their site is http://whiskerclub.org/index.htm . Check out the galleries.

Weeble, did you actually make all those images/frames in the southpark character design thing? Because, if you did....wow.
