How many unicyclists out there?
Does anybody have an idea of how many unicyclists there are in any given crowd of say 100 people? Is unicycling still something where you go out and people will say "wow!" or will they just say, "hey! I just learned to go backwards, what about you?" Basically...is it still WOW, or is it just SO WHAT? -- tylercox - 10-year-old Unidude "The stupider you are, the cooler you are!" -tylercox ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tylercox's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/6120 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/32780 |

its still a WOW, unfortunately. I live in the 2nd biggest city in maryland, and i have yet to meet another unicyclist. The odds of finding another unicyclist are a lot less than 1/100 if you ask me. i'd say 1/1000 have tried it, between 1/5,000 and 1/10,000 are active unicyclists. those numbers are in no way accurate, they're just my general idea. Regardless, if you do stumble arcross another unicyclist in your area, consider yourself very lucky! -grant -- tennisgh22 - When will my kh24 come?!?! The problem with America is stupidity.

If 1/10000 was accurate, we should be able to get a pretty good group going here in Atlanta. Out of 400 avtive unicyclists, we should be able to get 20-30 to show up. Of course that would be assuming your numbers were accurate. -- bugman - Survivor 2004 Wolfman Duathalon "It is the soldier, not the reporter who has given us the freedom of the press.

Wow, I went riding last Sunday, and I met 6 people who could unicycle and one more who learned in 5 minutes. There are at least 7 people who can unicycle who live within a mile of me. -- gerblefranklin - Trials Unicyclist Don't you think it's a cruel irony that acting like a G.I.

I don't know. Apparently there is a lady on the other side of my fair town who is training to be a clown so when people see me they say "Hey do you know the unicycle lady?" To which I reply "Yes, we all know each other." But I've really never met her. And I live on a street where my sister and I are the oldest (at 17 and 16 respectively) and the rest of the kids aren't older than 10. Today a youngin no older than 6 said "Hey get back here circus boy!" I suppose he wasn't impressed as his tone was that of a mother about to punish her young with a bull whip. -- PopeSamXVI - Resident Hogwasher/Hornswaggler Karol Jozef Wojtyla Forever!

I think that this should be a required question on the 2010 U.S. census. Now who should we write to in order to get this to happen? At least they should include it in the more detailed questionaire which is sent to something like every hundredth household. -- grey - George Kleinert "be carefull not to violate the cardinal rule: never sleep with anybody who is crazier than you are. - evilewan ------------------------------------------------------------------------ grey's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/4330 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/32780 |

I know of 8 in my town (and county) who have ridden or still do ride. But I think there's probably more. My town's (and county) population is about 20,000, I think. That equals 1/2500.
