Oi mate. Someone nicked your wheel!
This amused me no end when I saw it. I share it with you all for no other reason.
To his credit, one-wheel-guy was really going for it and had over-taken a couple of surprised looking ladies on more normal bikes going up the hill.
I was searching about the Northern Lights and happened to come upon your blog.
It amused me to read about your son's love of level crossings. My five year old boy has a similar love. We live in the far North of England right beside a train level crossing but my son's love of watching the level crossing rise and fall has only grown and he'll walk transfixed backwards down the road so he can watch the level crossing lower and the trains and metros race pass!
