Default Re: Who rides unicycles (apart from clowns)

I love my unicycle! It's a blue Schwinn. Now I don't get to ride too often but every once in a while...I hop on and go. I learned to ride when I was 12 and just kept it up on and off over the years. I HAVE been a clown at a few vacation Bible schools in time past but never on my unicycle. So...I ride. Who I am is listed under the cafe' section of "where are you from...what do you do."

An incombustible character.

combining his wit and talent with a variety of stunt wheels, tall unicycles
that have legs and feet, miniature bikes that are only 30, 20 and 10cm high
and monocycles with 5 wheels.
Karoli demonstrates his passion for wheels with this daring show.

A visual family show suitable for all

Dammit, MP, you got me to post again! Stop being so controversial or I'll send you to your room to tidy your kilts.

I'm in utter amazement at that. I can't do that with TWO wheels, let alone one.

Have you ever seen a unicycle like this? It's called the Wild Bull. Don't think it's the same as regular unicycles but sure looks interesting. Don't think I could ride it tho. Some days just walking is dangerous!
