I never considered riding a unicycle until I saw them up close at
Burning Man in August 2007. That got me thinking about it, how neat it
would be to ride across the playa on a uni for miles and miles! The
idea stuck in my head after I got back to Ottawa but I didn't do
anything about it until, while walking in "the Market" one September
evening with my girlfriend, a unicyclist rode past us. We stopped him
and talked a bit (I wonder who that was). He gave me some good info. My
24" arrived at the end of October and the rest is history.
By the way, Saskachewanian, I can't open the thread above.

I have always rode my bike without hands and that really annoyed my
dad.
I was first just a joke, that he would buy a bike without handbar and
give it to me so I wouldnt ever need to use hands while riding. And so
it began...

I always wanted to ride the unicycle but always put it off because I
didn't know where to get one and was too lazy to find out. Then my
brother got a 20'' torker cx which I liked and learned how to uni on.
Then I got a 24'' bedford and upgraded to a nimbus II Muni with isis hub
and kh cranks which was bought here on the forum

I first saw a unicycle in my juggling club at school :D. I saw it and
thought, oh thats cool, then never thought about it again until a year
later. Then I was looking for some but didn't know where to look so I
kind of gave up, but then that day I was walking around a town near mine
and we decided to go in the bike shop, and there was a cx sitting there
so I bought it :). Then I went home and practiced all day for a week and
finally got it.

I started after my older brother started, but he doesn't ride as much
anymore. How he got into uniing is pretty interesting, though--he saw a
crappy Torker Cx in his gym's closet and decided he wanted to learn to
ride it, so he came to school 30 minutes early for the next month or so
until he learned to ride. Now I am going to the same school and it's
kinda weird and cool to see and ride the same uni that got my brother
and I riding.

it started with a new boy beginning in my class. all the other boys,
including me, became friends with him day one. well, he had a uni, but
could only ride like 2 metres on it. i tried it while he was skating in
front of his house. i liked it because i couldnt do it, and because it
was and is, different. my parents knew someone that had a unicycle club
near me, so i began there with my father. shortly afterwards my sister
began too, and 6 of my friends started unicycling too. it isnt all of my
friends thats still unicycling, but half of them i think :)

Once upon a time I wondered if I could do it. I'm not sure what
unicycles I had seen in the media, perhaps some in circus on TV and
maybe cartoons. Gizmoduck had one. I bought one and it was very
uncomfortable to ride, took me ages but I persisted. That was in 1996,
now I am still addicted and teaching hordes of young unicyclists.
