Welcome to RSU and the world of unicycling.
The biggest tip you can remember is to keep your weight on the seat.
Have fun and with more practice you'll be zipping around in no time.
Welcome to the forums and also to the world of unicycling! Sounds like you are making great progress in just a short time; keep up the good work. Look forward to seeing you on the forum frequently...
You should also check out the website for the 'Union of UK Unicyclists' (http://www.unicycle.org.uk/). Particularly the local clubs page. You can learn more from riding with others than all the tips you'll get here.
*thanks mate i sure will cant wait until i can like go to school and stuff the looks on peoples faces will be awesome *
You're one of the cases why unicyclers are called attention seeking. You shouldn't unicycle because people would look up to you and think you're cool. If you want to be cool, impress people without a unicycle by being who you are.
In my opinion unicycling is a sport that's incredibly fun, but nothing I would use to show off in front of people. Of course you can't avoid getting funny looks, but you shouldn't seek for them.

I have seen the elaboration by Ginja-Ninja so this may be less appropriate now. But I don't agree with wogri. If anyone wants to use unicycling to impress people or look cool, why not? Oh man, things that are MUCH worse have been done to impress people!

Welcome (: I was so glad there were other unicyclists out there, otherwise it would just be another of my quirky hobbies that no one else understands. And there's nothing wrong with looking cool on a unicycle ^__^
