  8. Now age 51. I started riding in April 2003.

    A tip of my hat to you old guys (older than me) who just started. I
    thought I was ancient to be starting this sport.

    I have 4 unicycles and ride 3 or 4 times per week.

    Hope you hand feels better.

  12. in october I will turn 56 with 2 years of unicyling
    (but still a novice: can't ride backwards, idle for long, or hop -
    I am a slow learner so plenty of things to learn until I turn 100 ๐Ÿ˜‰)

  13. Another happy birtyday to Sockmonster!

    July 1 is also my anniversary (4 years!). My wedding included a show
    with two unicycle acts:
    1. MUni Mania, a collage of MUni featuring Bruce Bundy, Brett Bymaster,
    Geoff Faraghan, Tim Bustos, Nathan and Beau Hoover, John and Woody
    Hooten, and Andy Jennings. Hope I didn't leave anyone out!
    2. Me, on a Freestyle uni, handlebar uni, 12" wheel, 45" wheel, giraffe
    and maybe B.C. wheel. The stage wasn't big enough for the artistic
    bike.

    BTW for those that care, my "proper" learning to ride started on
    Halloween night, 1979 when I finally got up the courage to ride Bradley
    Bradley's Schwinn Giraffe away from the trunk of a friend's car. I only
    went about 3' (after at least 5 minutes of hesitation). But that was
    enough. A few days later I completed my basic learning process in a 45
    minute period. A week after that we headed off on a 10 mile round trip
    ride, and did an amazing amount of damage to our crotches!

    I do not remember the dates of my original learning to ride. I'm not
    even positive it was 1976. I just know it was a period of 2-3 months,
    and was very frustrating in the beginning. Try learning on a Troxel with
    no instruction!
