  2. Cool!
    Now you need to learn how to turn to the left, how to idle one footed,
    how to ride with the other foot, ride with the foot extended, ... ๐Ÿ™‚

  4. George you are an alien. That is the only logical explanation. I think
    many unicyclists are. ๐Ÿ˜„

  5. Woo-hoo for George!

    Last Monday at club, Lucas, an 11 year old and I were working on
    one-foot riding together. I'd get 4 revolutions, he'd get 5. I'd get
    six, he'd get 8. Everytime I would go ahead, he'd get a long face and
    say, "Now I'm worse than you." Then I got 11 at the end of the night
    and thought I had it in the bag. As we were cleaning up, Lucas came
    away with 12 revs and in front of his mother too. I was pretty proud of
    him. Thing is, Lucas has been riding for six or eight weeks and I've
    been working on one-footing for a year and a half.

    So George, again I say Woo-hoo for you! I know you haven't been riding
    very long. Way to pull it off!

    From the chat room..."Now I'm impressed!"

    while.

    Kids, you never know to be proud of them of just jealous of them.

    I learned one foot last year to where I could consistently do the
    "levels test" of 10M then back to pedals. Since then I have been trying
    to master figure 8. Two weeks ago it was like I had never one footed
    before in my entire life then last week it was easy, go figure.

    As for one-footing on the non-dominant foot, I would like to say it is
    impossible (and JC and my daughter are aliens). So far it is impossible
    for me...someday.

    UniBrier - Its Time to Ride

    Steve De Cuckoo

    The Roadrunner or Ground Cuckoo can run at speeds of up to 15 miles per
    hour (24 km per hour). It rarely flies and does not migrate. When it is
    in danger, it runs or crouches to hide.

    The RoadUnier or Cuckoo Cokier can ride at speeds of up to 15 miles per
    hour (24 km per hour). It rarely flies and does not migrate. When it is
    in danger it UPDs and slides.

  9. By the way.. that "24 inch freestyle" is just a 24" Sun with hoseclamps
    for one footed tricks.
