Any of you beginers that have never been to a unicycle event
may be interestede in the folowing report.
First thing THANK YOU GUS AND SUE for all the help.
I walked in the door and there were all these unis with big
comfortable seats. I was promptly advised as to what kind of
seat I should get to replace my little torker seat and a
higher post to suit my size. I was realy riding low.
I went there to see how to freemount. There are many ways.
The simplest, I will soon learn. The other extreme; One guy
would walk up, step over the cycle, laying on the floor,
with one foot, give the crank a kick and up- come the uni
and he rode off.
They went forward, backward and sideways. Yess; hopped
sideways.
Let the seat part fall and rode off on the wheel with the
seat draging behind. Then, without stoping, picked up the
seat and rode normal.
They rode using their feet on the wheel, hands on the wheel,
standing on the fork, on one pedal only , etc. Things, if I
had not seen, I would not have imagined.
Everybody was friendly and gave me many tips, help, and
advice. Thanks to all of you. Now I am ready to go practice.
I had a throughly enjoyable visit. Any of you have not been
to such a get together should go at the first oportunity.
😄
