On the good side, I sat down with my thoughts for a minute and figured out how to make it a simple one person affair. :-)

Just put 2 kickstands (Lets call them "landing gear" form here on out SkyKing) at the same linear point (but outboard) of the single wheel so they would pivot on the same plane.

So the un coupling is kick, kick, lift. Easy Peasy :-)

on my 1-wheeler I have castor'd pogos kinda like the U-2 used under its wings which slip into a square tubing receiver (like old VWs and Mercedes jack sockets) on each side of the nose.
