Milestone

I reached a long anticipated milestone today:

I finally tried juggling while riding, and I was able to do it!

To be honest, the best run was only 25 throws, and most were only about
9 or so, but I still feel great.

I think that the juggling will help my riding as well since it forces me
to not over-think my riding. I have to spend more of my attention on
the balls and the riding just seems to happen.

I love the feeling of accomplishing something that I have looked forward
to for months.

Mandell, it is great to accomplish new feats. Congratulations!!!

I also agree with KK's quote on multi-tasking. Twenty something years
ago when I was learning to juggle, I could actually juggle better while
unicycle riding than while juggling alone. Weird huh, but totally true.


Again, Congratulations!!! --chirokid--

Congrats Mandell!
I took up juggling originally because I had my hands free while
unicycling. It's great to know that you can do both (and an excellent
bragging point to people who can't do either!)
