I learned in Michigan also. Don't remember what time of year I started,
but it was in the weather-proof basement. My unicycle was a P.O.S. so
progress was incredibly slow and I gave up many times. But after about
six weeks I could ride further than the basement would allow. I took it
outside and it fell apart. It was three years before I had access to
another unicycle to "finish" learning on. That was a Schwinn Giraffe.
Don't follow my example.



haha. I dont envy you. I forget how lucky we are here in the 21 century

Well, boys and girls, this is what separates us from the gods; Kris goes
riding and has to worry about landing on naked ladies - you and I have
to watch we don't land in dog poop.....

You sir, were (are?) mad.

I learned holding onto the wall of a friend's garden, on his 24" DX. I
quickly learned to use shinguards.
