Re: Are you 45+

Well my seat post came in yesterday and I quickly put it on and took it
for a quick spin. I am really amazed that I haven't forgotten much
about riding. I was going to ride around the block, but something
happened that I wasn't expecting. I got saddle sore after only a couple
of minutes and had to call it quits after just five minutes. I remember
when I bought a regular mountain bike a few years ago that I also got
saddle sore. It was so bad that I thought it would never stop, but I
kept ridding and after a few weeks the saddle soreness stopped. So I
guess I will have to put up with the saddle soreness for a while until
I get used to it.

Today I took the Schwinn seat apart and put a 12" innertube in it to
give me a more comfortable air ride and that helped a little. I also
looked on craiglist again this morning a saw a guy selling a Coker and
met up with him and bought that too. So in less than a week, I am a
proud owner of two unicycles.

I was intimidated with the Coker at first since it has such a gigantic
tire on it. The guy I bought it from said he only used it 3 times and
it showed. The bike looks brand new. I asked him to ride it first so I
could see how it is done. Then I took a try at it. I started up
peddleling too slow and fell off after only 10 feet or so. So on my
second attempt, I just peddled faster and took off down the street with
no problems. I even made a u-turn and turned around and came back to
where I started. I can't wait to free mount the thing. Now I just need
to get over this saddle soreness thing so I can put some miles on that
Coker.
