I suspect that you mean 'seat on side'
(http://www.unicyclist.org/cont/play....f320240cseatsR) rather than
'side ride'
(http://www.unicyclist.org/cont/play....20240csideride).

Squat down more. That will allow your leg to fit between the tire and
the seat.

What size and type of unicycle are you using for seat on side? Seat on
side is very difficult (painful for the leg when the tire rips the skin
off) on a 24x3 muni with long cranks. Much easier on a 20" or a
standard 24".

Try not having the seat so much on the side, just have it sortof in the
corner, then ease it as far to the side as is comfortable. After awhle
you just get more used to it.
