Subject: Europa-List: Attention monowheelers
Hi All,
While searching for folding bikes, kick-scooters, and other small
transportation devices we could carry in our Europa, I came across
powered unicycles. This for sure must attract Europa monowheelers. What
is cooler than getting out of your monowheel Europa, take out your
powered unicycle and start exploring the area? These devices are unlike
the circus unicycles with a steep learning curve but instead use
electronics and solid state gyro's to balance on a single wheel and can
be mastered by anyone in 30 minutes.
Top of the line are devices like this:

It really seems to work! Google or youtube on electric unicycles.
(Ok, the links shows something which looks cool but isn't strictly a
monowheel, but the same can be said from the Europa. However there are a
lot of true electronicly powered and balanced unicycles available.)
Have fun!
Frans
