Paris by night

Nice. Night riding in a city is fun. A different experience around
than doing the same ride in the middle of the day.

I don't know if the Montmartre stairs look steeper, but I know the
photographer's work is made harder 🙄

Hello guys,

I am so glad to find this forum. I know this off-topic but I was
hoping to be able to get some information. I am a complete newbie with
regards to riding a unicycle but I would like to learn it. So I was
wondering if anyone could provide some info on where in Paris I might
be able to purchase a unicycle? I found some brand names on the web and
the recommendations but I wasn't sure whether they would be available
here. Or would just buying them off the net be a better choice?

Appreciate any kind of help / info. Thanks much.

You'll find dealers here : http://monocycle.info/vendeurs.php
As a complete newbie, don't spend too much money and buy a cheap 20" or
24" unicycle at first.

Awesome! Are you guys going to be there between the 22nd and 29th of
March? I've already arranged to meet with a few people and ride, but
the more the merrier 🙂

Sorry, but I'd like to ask another quick question.

What's the common practice of unicycling here in Paris? Do you do it on
the roads with the cars / bicycles? Or do you do it on the sidewalk
with the pedestrians?

I bought a Unicycle yesterday, from this shop Passe Passe near Simplon,
they were really nice and helpful about the whole thing. I spent about
3 hours on it last night, I think I'm making progress, I hope to get
some hours in this weekend.

You'll find almost every practice in and around Paris (street, trial,
road, Muni, basket, ...).
I seldom ride in Paris itself (because I am dead scared of cars) So I
usually ride on the pavement (with a 19"😉 unless there are too many
people around.

wow, Thanks for the in-depth info.

I hope to be able to join you guys in a few months. I've only clocked
3hrs on the unicycle so far, give me some time (also to get my French
up to steam). It's nice to know there's such a following, I'll
definitely keep this forum bookmarked.
