Juggling Festivals Galore

So I've been to two juggling festivals over the last 3 weeks and had a blast. Lots of interesting things to see and do. Like ride wierdass bicycles... bicycles with offcenter wheels or 2 wheel steering. Or try riding a bike where the wheels turn opposite to the handlebars. That's downright impossible even if you've ridden a bike your entire life.

There was also a collection of unicycles, some with wheels 2.5 cm in diameter. Suffice to say, not even the most hardcore unicycle riders there could manage that thing, though the world record for the unicycle with the smallest wheel ever ridden is held by one with a 1.5cm diameter wheel. It's like balancing on a pinhead

Anyway here's some pics from Fort Wayne:

Just got back from Midland juggling fest where I performed a virgin devilstick routine to the tune of Everlong by Foo Fighters. The audience was really appreciative and unlike the layman audience which turns off the moment you drop something, (since they're fellow jugglers) they know how hard it actually is to do a whole routine without a single drop. Anyway I think 3 or 4 drops in a 3 minute routine is pretty good already.
The only flaw was that I forgot to ask a friend to record this on video. I'm hoping someone else randomly decided to make one and I can leech it off him.

So that was my last month, I'm fine and how are you??
