  1. I just got back from the South Garland Graduation at the Special Events
    Center. That's a pretty good area for unicycling- a lot of nice smooth
    pavement! We had to be there an hour early, so I took my unicycle and
    rode for 45 minutes.

    I've walked a lot out at Rowlett Creek Preserve, and ridden a bicycle
    around there one time. What I remember about riding the bike there was
    bouncing over ten million roots. It's mostly level, no problem there,
    but a pogo stick would work about as well with the roots. Although
    some of those trails out in the open would probably work better.

    What is the horse trail like, btw?

    I'm mostly a pavement guy. I assume I could ride something like
    Rowlett Creek (omitting the few dips) with a couple of weeks of
    practice. That might be an idea to work on, come to think of it. But
    I've only ridden on grass a very few times, and it was dragging a
    sandbag behind me.

    Firewheel Town Center might be a good place for general riding as well.

    The trail is mostly hard dirt and tiny compacted gravel.
    There were some short washed out areas last time I rode but they
    weren't much of a challenge for a 26 inch. A 20 might be more
    interesting.
    Not much of interest to a serious MUni person. Hmmm... now that I
    think about it, I've never seen any horse foot-prints out there.
