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!

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.

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

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.

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!
