Depends what muni you have. Either way I doubt it would be perfect for
any of the things you mention, but you could certainly do them to an
extent, just not as well as say a 20/24" for idling or a 26/29" road uni
for urban use. If you have the cash, why not go for another uni? They're
relatively cheap!

I used my muni as the general-purpose unicycle before the fleet
expanded. It'll work, but you will wear the tyre out faster on the
tarmac than on the trail.

I invested in a smooth tyre (fireball, but something like a Hookworm
looks the job) and some shorter cranks to convert the muni into a faster
pavement cycle, you could give that a try.

I was using a friends Muni for a while on pavement, and it performed
better than my torker. The muni also had the fireball tire on it, and
the PSI was signifigantly lowered than normal, which made for a fairly
comfortable ride.
