    First off, this site is great. While I was looking around
    the forums I thought of an intresting idea. What if users
    proposed different challenges to the rest of the unicycling
    community. These challenges would be to perform a certain
    unicycling skill, for instance, ride backwards X amount of
    feet without falling. The first person to perform this task
    (with video proof) would be honored in some sort of way,
    until another challenge had been performed.

    just an idea, please give feed back

    thanks- MP

    That's kinda nice, except it fazvors the people who ride
    with people who do filming, and also most of the challenges
    will be met by the top 2% of the riders here in notime. For
    example, in order to have any real trials challenge, you'd
    have to have some simple goal like "pedalgrab 125cm". As far
    as I know the world record is 116cm, by Ryan Atkins, so this
    would be a realistic challenge. But, this would probably be
    an unmet goal for a very long time, and it would favor the
    *very* elite riders on this site who both have videocameras,
    and can already jump over 1m. So basically, nice idea, but
    it probably won't work.

    Don't you think it's a cruel irony that acting like a G.I. Joe in the
    army can get you a Medal, while playing with one can get you thrown out?
