  1. I bought a uni yesterday, just a cheapy, nothing to get overly excited
    about. I've riden a uni twice since my first uni broke when I was
    about 13-14 years old, I'm 35 now.

    I gues there are some things you never forget how to do.... I would
    call my first attempt successful, I rode down the drive and back up
    between the cars. Compared to what I see other folks doing, It's
    hardly worth mentioning, except I had a blast! I was also able to do a
    free mount, something I could easily do at age 12. I was suprised to
    be able to ride in a somewhat controled manner and do some almost sharp
    90 degree turns.

    Not much more to report.....except a big thanks to the list, you guys
    got me excited about riding again.

  3. Great! yeah, it's easy once you know how, even 20 years later. Now if
    you only remembered to kept those muscels fit.... It's great
    exercise.

    So now that you have one, you'll need at least 2 more.

    Coker! Coker! Coker!

    know about 3. 🙂

  5. I wonder what it's like to ride a Coker, I probably don't fit, do I? I'm
    5'1" and 11 years old. I could use one for getting to the beach and
    back, 2.34 miles there and back I've ridden mine there and back...and
    walked... 😄

    that was neat, now i only have to put it to use.
    parents banned my uni due to low school marks so if there are any nerds
    out there with a kind heart, i have a psychology assignment that is a
    few weeks over due, it is on intelligence.
