Whenever I look at my watch it says the time is 'UNI' time. Even IF it is late in the evening. Is it wrong, though? 🤔
Picture taken just now. Now for the fun part. I am the one taking the picture. Work that out! 😆
I really want to go for a ride but by the time I eat dinner and help put the kids to bed it will probably be too late. 😞#unicyclist
Just relaxing with my new favourite beer.
The woman ahead of me, going into the subway entrance this morning, was riding a unicycle.

Been learning more about Claude Shannon of late. There is a documentary about him (albeit with an actor acting out parts of "interviews") called "The Bit Player" and it is fascinating. Basically, every time you store, process or transmit information in digital form, wincluding saving files, talking on a mobile phone, texting, using the fediverse, etc. it is based on the ideas that Shannon put forward back in 1948 in his "A Mathematical Theory of Communication".
Also… he was a keen #unicyclist 😉

More snow than ice today so I changed it up and went for my 26 inch uni with a 3 inch wide lightly studded tyre and cranks in the 125mm position.
As everyone knows, it is super handy to have multiple winter unicycles.

I decided that the ice is a bit too crazy at the moment. I have had one minor fall already (just a little bruise), so I have put on a much more aggressively studded tyre on my 29 inch wheeled #unicycle, a Schwalbe Ice Spiker Pro.
I should be fine now. 😉

I have been a big sick recently but had already promised the kids takeaway today.
My plan had been to use a local delivery service to deliver us food but with reduced delivery options because of "traffic" (I am pretty sure it is just all the snow ouside) this was not possible. So I went out and got it myself.

Hello. Its only taken me a few weeks to put out my intro. I'm Billy and I'm a #biogeochemist based in #northernireland. I'm interested in how #environmental change affects #ecosystem processes like #CarbonCycling. I'm a #juggler #unicyclist, #scicomm enthusiast and #banjo player.
Mostly toot / tweet about #marinescience and #climatechange

I actually took a quick picture myself before I left this morning.
Not great quality as I took it with a Nokia feature phone (2MP camera)

I met @anneviv on the way in so I stopped for a photo op. 📷

So I stepped out of my flat and I see the snow is building up and it is still snowing.
I decided that I should switch to a wider tyre for tomorrow, just in case.
This is not a proper winter tyre but I have self studded it. It might be hard to make out the studs though, since they have gone a little rusty brown during the time this was stored.
I am sure they will grip just fine. 😉

I feel like I have already normalised #unicycling to work through the snow and ice, so today I took it up a notch. This is my choice of cycle clothing for the commute to #VivaldiBrowser
Too much? 🎅🏻🤓

Some more pictures from previous years
Apparently it will start to get colder next week and people began to ask (as they always do) if I would still unicycle to the office.
Past me (see picture from an old winter commute) can confirm that this will happen. It is never too cold, icy or snowy to unicycle to work.

Ok, your fanatical #unicyclist is back in action! I built up an additional uni (with studs) just from parts I had lying around! 😆
I am looking forward to cycling … as soon as it starts to snow again! 😆
@laurap909 This is actually my common form of commuting during cold months.
A photo in action for you, if you want proof. 😉
