Unicycling around the globe: One-wheel adventures with explorer Ed Pratt

When most 18-year-olds finish college, they start to think about university or starting a career. Not Ed Pratt. Aged 19, he set off from his front door on a unicycle – and three years later he’d circumnavigated the globe. Yes, you read that correctly: he rode around the entire world on one wheel.

Just like Joff Summerfield from earlier on this year, Ed’s sense of adventure and remarkable stories from the road made for a fascinating chat – and, of course, Rob’s mind was blown.

Since we spoke to Ed, he’s completed another incredible challenge: following the River Thames from source to sea – without leaving it once! To check out his globetrotting unicycle journey and everything else he’s been up to since, visit @EdPratt on YouTube.

Before then though, settle in for this remarkable Just Ride chat with a modern British explorer.
