How long till u could ride?

Took me about a week and a half to mount & ride for extended distances.
That probably ended up being the usual 10-15ish hours that most people
report.

I think I could have gone faster if I was just focussing on riding and
not freemounting at the same time.

Well it took me 39 years to discover unicycling, then about 5 weeks
after that.

Or my other answer is - I'm still very much learning after a fantastic
year.

It took me one juggling club meet until I could ride across the gym
and thats about 3 hours.
Then I just kept at it, I was hopping in about a week.

school these days when i can just be a street performer?) and about 7-8
hours to mount and go continuously.

I took me 16 years till I could ride. Then I took a couple weeks to
learn. I just realized that March 2006 marked my 30th anniversary as a
rider!

You can do two things there:

1. Assess your unicycling talent in a fun way.
2. Send your data to me to be included in the 'definitive' study.

it would be interesting to extend the study further: how fast are you
progressing? the problem is how to measure that...
I ,for instance, have been rolling for over three years and I am still
unable to jump over a small tree root that happens to cross my way 🙁
I am a _super-slow_ learner!

after about two hours, separated by a week, i experienced a click, and
knew i had it. once in the possession of a unicycle, a week saw me
freemounting and turning proficiently.
