    35kg on a UNICYCLE!?! INSANITY, LOL! I packed maybe 20-25kg on my mountainbike (packing way too much clothes, and a LOT of water because i did not have a waterfilter), and it felt really heavy uphill, and kinda scary downhill, LOL! My current baseweight (for summer camping without a bike) is 6,44kg, which i think is pretty decent, but i hope to get it down to maybe 3,3kg in June. I dont understand why anyone would pack/need over 10 times this weight XD

    What I dont understand about unicycles: how do you not hurt your balls? Seriously, I find normal bikes with fairly padded seats to be really uncomfortable as well, so i dont really sit on it, I mostly support my weight on the steering handle and the pedals, and I only sit down slightly off center with one thigh or the other when rolling downhill. But that doesn't seem like an option on a unicycle...
