FEARLESS teenager Matthew Hart is practising his mountain unicycling skills in preparation for a charity ride.
The 17-year-old Settle High School student, who lives in Clapham, is aiming to either unicycle up and down Ingleborough or tackle a challenging cross country ride on one wheel.
"It depends how my training goes as to which I decide to do," said Matthew, who started unicycling seven months ago.
"A friend had a unicycle and I've always wanted to have a go so I learnt how to ride one. Then I found out about mountain unicycling on the internet.
"There are no brakes so you have to be quite strong as well.
"There's quite a few people do this here and in America - I'm not the only crazy person," Matthew added.
Matthew does his daily paper round by unicycle so he gets plenty of practice.
