That's my neck of the woods but I can assure you had it been me I'd have stopped for a chat. I wonder who the mystery cyclist could be?
I've only ever come across another unicyclist whilst riding when I was in the lakes earlier this year. It's a rare opportunity which should be made use of!
Even in my bicycling days there were only one or two (serious) riders who would fail to acknowledge someone travelling the other way (unless they were actually racing of course). And that was from a far larger population from which to find the miserable gits. Plus everyone knew who they were!
We should identify the culprit and make it compulsory to sing the circus song to him at every opportunity until he recants from his heinous self-righteousness. Or whatever happens to people that don't 😉

PS well done for getting out and about on your uni. It seem such a short time since you started posting here as an even newer noob than I.
I really enjoyed reading your post, it was quite a vocabulary exercice for me though. And yes, his reaction was weird. If i met other unicyclist when i am riding, i would follow him (or her) as long as possible.

Naomi has been posting here for years.
Indeed, somewhat strange / unexpected behaviour of that other uni rider. Goes to show that not all unicyclists are alike - most would have stopped. I think you said a funny thing as a conversation starter.

Well I am ashamed to say I have been posting and riding for quite a while. I am just a slow learner, and one who I admit rides rather less than I ought to.

Please accept my apologies, Naomi. It seems that my memory for names is not so good!
