    The problem with America is stupidity. I'm not saying there should be a
    capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety
    labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?

  5. Geez, Andrew, you're just plugging your site wherever you see an
    opportunity! ๐Ÿ™‚

    Soo, to learn to ride backwards, use methods you used to learn to ride
    forwards. Get another unicyclist to help, or use a wall, or a big stick
    to balance with....

  8. Don't ride backwards. It's dangerous.:eek: You can't see very well in
    that direction, and it's inefficient. Go forwards instead.๐Ÿ˜‰

    if u can get hold of a shopping trolley, they make wonderfull moving
    supports for practising backwards
    they never get tired
    they never try n tell u how to do it
    and they never tell u to go put on a jersey
    if it feels a bit unstable, as if it's going to tip over onto u if u put
    too much weight on the handle, just put something heavy in the trolley
    itself
    and remember to relax your hips

    I'd forgotten about that...I agree, they're very handy. I can only
    coast aobut 6m at the very best but can coast about 20m when assisted by
    a shopping trolley...which is really fun.
