  1. are there in the world?
    Of course there are various definitions of what a unicyclist is, but I
    mean can 'ride' unassisted for more then say... 5 meters.
    I've had an interesting time trying to calculate this out because I
    can't tell who unicycles and who doesn't. You aren't automaticly given
    a big green flag to strap to your face after you learn, so who's to
    know?

    5 meters doesn't seem far enough to declare oneself a "rider". A UPD
    can throw me that far. :eek:

    Perhaps we should all wear a scarlet letter. Or number...

    The number one on our foreheads. Should it be an Arabic numeral?
    Chinese? What about Roman? Just a thought. 😉

  4. The Japan Unicycling Association claims that 6 million kids have learned
    to ride in Japan since they started. If you believe that number, assume
    most of them are still alive because the JUA only started in 1978. Then
    work from there. I'd say at least 6,000,000 worldwide, 99% of which
    hacen't been on one in a long time.

  5. Ok, so I know 3 guys here in town and there are a bunch of people on
    this forum, so I am going to guess 6,060,000. Give or take 1000 or so.

  11. 'This thread is the uni count.' (http://tinyurl.com/39bjpm) Theres about
    743 unicyclists on that. But thats just on these forums. Dont start
    another one.

    And in the 'forbes boost your business competition'
    (http://www.forbes.com/byb/final_round/byb07_unicycle.html), John
    drummond from unicycle.com stated that he is aiming for 1% of the
    population of the world to ride unicylces. So if he is aiming for that
    then there must be *at least *0.5% of the world riding now.

    _*P.S._VOTE_FOR_JOHN!_ (\\"HTTP://WWW.FORBES.COM/BYB/FINAL_ROUND/BYB07_UNICYCLE.HTML\\"😉*_
