    I'm still practicing free mounts, getting better, the dead position is
    my new worst enemy, right next to me!

    *1) *Trust me, you are destined to conquer the unicycling addiction.
    But you must take it 1 step at a time, then rushing it all. 😄
    *2) *That enemy will disappear soon enough. Just don't let negativity
    or fear stop you from achieving something you know to be true (like
    unicycling). When you have rid yourself of this *evil,* Your confidence
    will skyrocket and so will your happiness, joy and perseverance.

    I wish you all the best in your unicycling my good friend. As i know
    you will get rid of this enemy someday and just enjoy your unicycle to
    its full extent.

    Your good Greek Cypriot Australian friend. 😄

    It took me two days, to learn to get full control / freemounts down
    properly and i've now been riding for five months.
    Everyone is different! Just take it at your own pace is the best advice
    I can give, if you push yourself too hard to be like other people
    before you are ready you might find yourself not enjoying what you are
    doing.
    Keep at it!

    Took me about two weeks, an hour a day, to get comfty to ride. Free
    mounting, once I started, took about the same time frame. Now, a year
    later, I'm riding in the middle of the street with traffic going both
    ways. Yeah, its a bit insane, but down here its almost perfectly
    normal. **Note: I don't condone or support this type of riding, please
    do so at your own risk, and always wear a helmet and stuff** My next
    two things to learn will be riding backwards and idling. I know it will
    take me some time, but in the long haul, it will make me a better, more
    responsible, rider.
