Default Re: Are you 45+


Hey,

After a friend from the Maritimes in Canada told me about 'Riding the
Lobster' race, I did a google of 'unicycle' and was amazed at all the
information, camraderie, and videos out there. It is fantastic. So I
dusted off my old 20 inch no name unicycle that I have not rode since I
was 13.

My fist attempt got me two feet, then four feet, then the next day 12
feet, and three days later to the end of the driveway, and then finally
down the street. I am getting there. I used to ride a mile to school
back in elementary school.

This is great fun. This forum, and especially this thread is
motivating.

I never learned to free mount, always needed a post or wall to start,
but I plan on mastering that this summer. The youtube instructional
videos are a help.
