a UNICYCLIST.COM testimony

After spending a few months on this foum, I have discoved my savings
account balance has dropped by almost $1,000.

But, that's worth having actually ridden a mountain bike trail on my
unicycle, which I would not have done without the peer pressure and my
competativeness with every member of this forum.😄

When i was WEEEL little, I asked for a unicycle for my birthday just for
the heck of it. I couldn't believe it when my grandma actually got me a
cheap 20"! For some reason, I only tried it once. UNTIL,i found it in
my shed about 2 months ago. I was riding all the way down my 360
ft.driveway (i live in a rural area) within a week. I LOVED IT.
Eventually I decided to try to find a website about unicycling, and here
I am. I've only been a member for a few weeks. I am working on tight
turns, speed, and balance. I hope to one day balance on beams without
moving like in those trials videos in the gallery.😄

with out this website i might have never even ordered a uni, cause when
i was gonna get my first one i was kinda switching between this and an
r/c car, but then i came across this website and saw all the cool stuff
you could do on a uni and then it pushed me all the way.

I like this site because everyone here is really friendly and accepting.
It's like walking into a pub and not feeling like the odd one out.

Try telling them you're a professional clown. 🙁

Yes, this forum played a big part in encouraging me to become a
unicyclist, rather than a unicycle owner. This forum encouraged me to
choose a Coker instead of a 28, then to buy the 28 anyway.

Unicycling has cost me a fortune (over £150 on riding clothes and shoes
this week!) but the ability to ride through beautiful countryside, and
to share my enthusiasm for the sport with friends from all over the
world through this forum is a great privilege. I'd like to thank my
agent, my producer, the director, the members of the Academy, my mum, my
friends, my aunt Sally, my uncle Jim, my girlfriend, and most of all my
fans... [At this point, Mike broke down in tears and was led away to a
darkened room.]

I spent last summer in Los Angeles. Through rec.sport.unicyling &
unicyclist.com, I got in contact with teachndad, who lent me his custom
'MUni' (http://gallery.unicyclist.com/Teachndads-Custom-Muni/aao). He
even drove 45 minutes out of his way to drop it off! (thanks again
Rod!)

I rode that awesome wheel (sans brake & airseat) daily in the Angeles
National Forest, which has some rather nice 'peaks.'

Over the winter, I finished up my degree and have permanently moved back
to Southern California. My KH 2005 MUni is in the mail, hopefully
arriving late next week!

How about some old school rec.sport.unicycling testimony. 🙂

I started lurking in the r.s.u. newsgroup long before unicyclist.com
existed. I was a member of the online service CompuServe. CompuServe
had a way to access the newsgroups out on the Internet. I searched the
newsgroups for unicycles and found r.s.u. I lurked for a long time but
learned more about unicycling but more importantly learned about the
growing sport of muni. I learned that Pashley had just started making a
MUni and that's when I got hooked on unicycling again and started riding
much more often.

I started lurking in the newsgroup sometime during the Windows 3.1 and
Windows 95 era. Not sure exactly when but it was somewhere in the mid
90's. Got the Pashley MUni in '97. Learned to unicycle way back in
the very early 80's before this Internet thing took off.
