I have just lately started trying to go distance. I am going to
definitely buy a 36 er. But today I went 13 miles!!!! I know to some
of oyu that is a warmup but for me it is an accomplishment. Up to
today the farthest I went was 7.5. I have been trying to increase my
distance. I did it on a 26" torker in 2hr 10 min. I am also well
aware that I do not need to call guiness world book of records about
land speed records but it was very cool. It also poured rain the last
6 miles. Family drove out to pick me up but I refused the ride. Goota
say.. I had a blast. I cannot wait to get the 36" and start some real
training.

Way to go, congrats!😄

Don't we all. Me and Madison both have unique speed records. So there's
an idea on what you can do. 😄 😄 😄

But congrats regardless. 😄

I'm not too sure, but I have a few hours spare today, so I will make
good use of them.

That's a good ride on a 26". I guess if you have a fairly standard set
up, that would be on cranks around 150 mm or longer? If so, then it's
even more of an achievement because keeping the rhythm going on longish
cranks and a "low gear" (small-ish wheel) takes determination, stamina
and skill.

There will always be people ahead of you. I take my hat off to the
people who have done 100 miles in a day, and amongst themselves, they
give respect to the few who have done it in under 10 hours. Everyone
bows before Aspenmike who does three mountain passes before breakfast
(although sometimes he has a late breakfast).

However, by doing 13 miles on any unicycle, you are now in a small
elite.

- Most people would never try to ride a unicycle.
- Most who try fail.
- Most who succeed never ride more than a few metres.
- Most who do never ride more than a few hundred metres.
- Most who do never ride more than 5 - 10 km, if that.
- 13 miles = 20.9 km.
- Out of 6 000 000 000 people in the world, probably only 1 000 have
done what you've done.

Be proud.😎

Now, let's see you crack the 15 miles...😉

But there's always that perseverance in people who will accomplish
these tasks that you say won't. Like me and alot of my friends and
people that i know who are determined to succeed in the world of
unicycling. 😄 😄
