Well done. I found that once I could get 5m or so regularly then it is
amazing how quick you start learning from here on. I was over the moon
when I got to the 10m mark. A couple more hours and you should be able
to go far enough that controlled turning becomes important. Once you
learn to ride straight and turn then it's a good idea to learn
freemounting as i am now, so that it's less embarrassing to ride in
public without assistance to get on.

Greetings fellow uni-ma-cyclists.
Ive been practicing now for <counts on fingers> a total of 4 - 5 hours
(In half hour sessions) and I really feel that today I've reached a
personal milestone 😄... not sure if this is the best place to announce
this, but here I am anyway.

Today I went wandering a little bit around where I live and took a tape
measure with me. In each of the (3) different locations I managed to
unicycle the following distances before falling off.

4.20m - 3.60m - 5.20m

I know it's not much, but to me it's just more of a reason to keep
going.
My little tip that I'm going to pass on to others who are learning is
that you really need a couple of different places to unicycle. It can
get boring / monotonous (depends on the person) in just one location.
It helped me anyway 🙂

Right well, again I apologise if this is the wrong place. Time to keep
practicing!

Ride safe
-Ben

well done mate! 🙂 its a great feeling going those first few meters

Ride everywhere and never just ride anywhere. If you can ride where you
are going within a hour, do it, and if you can do a trick 50-75% of the
time do it along the way.

Nah the brag thread is for hick flips and unispins, This is more of an
introduction than a brag 🙂

Welcome to the community!

Once you can get 5m you are well on your way to going 50 then 500 then
well, some of us never really ride further than that and work on
tricks...

Back when my rides were in the 2-10m range I found that finding a
gentle downhill sometimes helped me go further faster. With a little
bit of speed comes stability until you loose control and have to run
out of it 🙂

Have fun and keep on keepin on!
