Default Reasons for Unicycling.


Hey all. This thread is for everyone, so I hope you all will reply to
it.

I am working on a website to promote unicycling in the city I live in,
and I would like to provide some reasons why people should unicycle. I
figured the best way is to ask everyone here why they ride. You can
keep it fairly brief, or lengthy; whatever works for you. If you
don't mind me using your name on my website, please let me know. So,
here's the question:


WHY DO YOU UNICYCLE?

I unicycle 'cause if I tried to ride a bike I would DIE! (of boredom!)
Seriously, it's the most fun way to get/stay in shape and I love
people's reactions!

Motorists give me a lot more respect and room when riding on the road.
More fun and better exercise than bikeing

As everyone has said it is fantastic exercise and loads of fun. I also
love it becasue it is different I am the only one hwere I live who can
ride one so it sets me aprt. Also it gets cute girls (or not) to talk
with you and is a good conversation starter!

I do it because of what my signature says. That and it's very fun to
pull up next to a someone riding a BMX/MTB with your coker and all he
does is have his/her eyes really wide open and mouth dropped and ask
why he/she has a training wheel.

Well, for one thing, it's like taking a majic pill for any gravity
sports you do. When I'm getting in regular lunch rides during the
week, I think I'm such a good snow boarder on the weekends. When I
just spend the days at my sedentary job, I just feel weak on the
weekends.

Also, it's just so much more fun than jogging or bicycling.
