i finaly went on my first muni ride ever! i have had a muni for ages but its spent most of its time going backwards and forwards between em and unicycle.com bieng sorted out.
i had great fun but now i gota save up for the shinpads!
i dont know if anyone else finds this but as soon as your out on your muni and you hit some rough terrain you have this massive urge to pedal as fast as you can! lol the ride was very easy to start with because it was mostly very flat forest with a slight slope down but that slight slope seems much steeper on the way back up
Sorry, should have said in my first post that I'm near Great Dunmow, so a fair way from you.
As for being better - I haven't tried anything like muni yet, and if I manage to get to level 2 I get the feeling I'll be there pretty much forever (there's no way I can see me mounting left footed).
Sorry again, but can't msg yet (only just got a mobile and learned how to text!)
I tried uphill and down hill in my village recently and found that I 'couldnt't even remount' (http://tinyurl.com/4rvco) on a slope! Give me flat surface any day!
There's also a bloke in Braintree listed on the International Uniclist roster.
I don't know about going out for a ride, but I'd be up for a meet somewhere with flat surfaces!
