Nelson man Ethan Bruce has completed the 106km Rainbow Rage not only on one wheel, but also one leg.
The Richmond volunteer fire fighter completed Sunday's Rainbow Rage mountain bike race on a unicycle and despite breaking his leg just 30 kilometres into the race.
"I went to wipe my brow and I clipped a stone which bounced me sky high," says Ethan. "And when I came down my foot slipped and got wrenched in between the fork and the crank. I felt an almighty crack and then my wheel locked and I went flying even further, it was a double whammy."
He says he never thought of quitting despite other riders offering to use their SOS beacons so he could get a ride out.
"Too many people didn't believe that I could do it on a unicycle and I had to prove them wrong," he says.
