Do you mean on the platforms or through the tunnels? Or even possibly the

Not if you're going to perform a double-loop manoeuvre from within the
Circle line. You'd have to be on two wheels to get away with that.
Marylebone would be a legal move.

I'm not going to perform a double-loop manoeuvre. You can only do
single loops with a unicycle but you can use the Houdini gambit on a
lateral under the 1946 rules to effect the desired destination from TCR.

Wrong, this was overturned in the 1958 rules and can only stand on its
own if it is a tricycle. The Houdini gambit on a lateral with a unicycle
only applies if it is a follow on from a Steinbeck connective conjoined
with a Komminski-Vostok reverse polish manouvere. I think you'll find.

Wrong, this was overturned in the 1958 rules and can only stand on its
own if it is a tricycle. The Houdini gambit on a lateral with a unicycle
only applies if it is a follow on from a Steinbeck connective conjoined
with a Komminski-Vostok reverse polish manouvere. I think you'll find.

No, no, no - that's only when you play the Leningrad Variation, which
is considered bad taste since Markov because of its reference to
poisoned umbrellas.
However, I think Tony cheated. I think that move is only legal at
weekends and after 19:00...

You could ride it the wrong way, and stay in the one place.
Pointless really.
Then again, it would be good exercise for unicyclists.
London Underground could make a tidy sum running spinning classes for
unicyclists. Just crank that speed up to make then go 'uphill'.
