how young is too young?
happy_4_u wrote: *i have decided to learn, I'm twelve, is it hard to learn? also I think that children that young should start on two wheels. * One of my daughters learned to ride her 16" Torker when she was 5, and before she knew how to ride a bike. We got her a bike for her 6th birthday (she had one with training wheels before) and now she knows how to ride both. I think she took to learning the unicycle more quickly than the bicycle because of the speed of the machine when she was learning. She was definitely uncomfortable with the concept of building speed to become more stable on a bike, and very comfortable with balancing on a uni at relatively low speeds. --unidaddy -- unidaddy - head over wheel ------------------------------------------------------------------------ unidaddy's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/7879 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/42625 |

If I recall correctly, the youngest member of TCUC to learn to ride was a 3 and 1/2 year old girl. My 10 month old has his own unicycle, but right now all he can is drool on it. -- Jethro - Pliny's Dolphin ©¿© Bill Hugo ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jethro's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/9413 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/42625 |
