  1. Not just commute, either. whatever your style is, how often do you
    practice, and for how long? I ride trials after school most days, except
    for hard days of track, when I can barely ride home after the workout. I
    usually go for 3 hour rides on weekends, both saturday and sunday, with
    sunday being MUni, usually.

  2. I don't ride NEARLY enough. I go about once a week on the weekend, for
    about 3-4 hours each time. I didn't go last week though.... I really
    really need to ride more often. ):

  3. I miss riding daily. 🙁

    With work and uni(versity) I generally only ride muni for 3 hours or so
    on weekends with the occasional mid-week trials or muni excursion maybe
    once every 3 weeks. I miss the holidays when I was able to just go
    trials riding for a few hours every second day. I've ridden trials once
    in about the last 6 weeks. 🙁

    has most likely already been a similar one posted.

  8. During the semester, I ride several times per week usually around an
    hour each time - I'm a full-time employee and full-time student, so I
    don't have much time. But once the semester ends, I'll probably ride
    almost everyday.

  14. Not often enough.

    About 5 years solid riding, then 2 years off, then I rode at BUC 10 (April
    2003), then probably a couple of times in the months after that. Then
    about 2 years off.

    I got on for the first time last night for quite an ambitious (for me)
    off-road ride. Especially seeing as I was on my heavy DM Ringmaster Pro.
    We've been into Geocaching for a few years, and so when I saw the
    information sheet saying "Not unicycle friendly", I had to rise to the
    challenge 🙂

    Of course, I made a short video...

    5MB - http://www.pygmygoat.net/geocaching/red_rag_small.wmv
    10MB - http://www.pygmygoat.net/geocaching/red_rag_large.wmv

    I know this is absolutely nothing to you guys, but I'm pleased with myself
    😄

    Now planning to get thinner, lighter, fitter and ride more!

    Cheers,

    Stu

  15. I usually unicycle to work once or twice a week (the rest of the time I
    bike it) and go out at least once over the weekend (all on my 26x3,
    mostly off-road). If it's decent weather (not often recently 🙁 ) I'll
    sometimes do a bit of practice on my 20" in the evening, but obviously
    not often enough because I'm still hopeless at idling after over a year
    of riding... it's getting better slowly - hopefully I'll nail it at the
    SW Uni meet in a couple of weeks - it's so much easier on a nice smooth
    gym floor 🙂

  16. Let's see.....how much I actually ride? This spring has been about
    30-60 minutes a day (my daughters are responsible for this, they're on
    fire!), plus two hours on Tuesdays (uni-night w/Billham and the new
    club), and a nice 12-13 mile Coker ride on Saturday mornings, but we've
    missed that a couple weeks in a row now. Today I'm bringing my Coker
    downtown for some urban trail lunchtime riding....should be a riot! The
    daily riding with my daughters is all on our patio (just hopping, trying
    to learn something new, trying not to bleed too much).

  19. I normally ride once or twice a week for about an hour, but the last
    couple of weeks have been pretty hectic with essays and things so
    unicycling has been rather neglected.
    Think I will have to go for a ride when I get home later to make up for
    it!
