Avenue of Baobabs and Unicycles
These pictures complement the Mad Uni video when we rode from Morandava, Madagascar to the Ave of Baobabs.

Madagascar Unicycling Pictures
We took a pirogue (a dugout canoe) from Isle aux Nattes (a tiny island, not even shown on google maps) to Isle Sainte-Marie, a larger island off the east coast of Madagascar. We then road around for about 20 miles one day, and 15 the second.

Unicycling Video: Mad Uni
Mad Uni – Avenue of Baobabs, Madagascar
July 26th, 2009
Featuring: Corbin Dunn and Louise Lovelle
This is pretty much the only footage I shot when we were in Madagascar. I concentrated on taking photos when in Madagascar, and filming when I was in east Africa. The video is footage of Louise and me riding from Morondova to the Avenue of Baobabs. It was about 20 miles total, with half of it in the dirt and half on pot-hole infested roads, roughly from the coast to the center of this map:
Brake assisted coasting
Brake assisted coasting is kind of cool. Especially when your feet are horizontal.

Metalworking: cufflinks
One of my first metalworking projects was making cufflinks for my wedding. They are aluminum and I turned them on the lathe, and used the mill for some drilling and flattening (by eye). The back piece screws on and off.

Another HDR I took. The clouds were amazing. I may spend some more time tweaking these to make them look a little better.
