  1. I was watching blue peter (don't know why) on bbc 1 and saw this young
    kid who looked about ten. He could do lots of tricks and was better than
    me. I havent seen many very young unicyclists (I am, but at heart). Do
    you know any young unicyclists (even you!) if so please put down a post
    on how young they are, and we will see how young we can get to!

    My goal is for people to start to see unicycling as an extreme sport and
    forget about the circus.

  9. King Muni Man (son of Jason in Alaska who used to post here) is now 7
    I think, he's been riding since he was 5. Allegedly, the youngest
    unicyclist on record was 18 months old.

  10. I'm 13. Not the youngest and definitely not the oldest. 🙂

    No way... I don't know much about kids and when they walk and talk and
    stuff but surely that'd be too early for most to learn to ride a bike, a
    unicycle tho? Maybe the 18 month-older just owns a unicycle :p

    Well, if I'm lying, I'm lying 'in commission', see the bottom of 'this

  15. There's a 6-year-old girl that lives up the street from me... I see her
    pedaling circles around her bike-riding friends, barefoot, just about
    every day in her driveway. She even rides it down the street to the
    beach (again, barefoot).

    Apparently she goes to some sort of progressive school, where all the
    children are taught to ride, juggle, etc. They've graduated a few older
    students onto giraffes even. I heard her teacher used to be a clown,
    but the thought is too scary for me to believe.

  16. Darren Bedford was telling me of a friend of his whose 5 year old took
    to the unicycle like a fish to water. He was unicycling in a matter of
    hours!

    Darren was so impressed he was building a customunicycle for him. I am
    going to ask Darren about the kids progress and will update y'all!
