got the 20" ... practice going good
It's kinda funny how unicycling has gotten me to do stuff I would
normally not do. It is about the only exercise I get and it is
definitely the only exercise I enjoy. It has gotten me up early in...

that the tube had squeezed out and even though I had...

Learning to Unicycle as performance art...
I would submit that art and unicycles are similarly absurd and pointless
in their utility. But both exist for the pleasure of the people who
partake in them. However, unicycling has the added...

Muni article in the New York Times
Thanks for posting the article. I was surprised to see that I was in
the NAUCC video (at least my backside) 1:23-1:29.

A lot of good feedback on here. My 2 cents is that practice is the key.
The more you try, the better your technique will get and the more
successes you will have. Last summer I could not do much on...
