I was going to call this thread "Are you 50+”, but I thought it might be too lonely. Hey, there are threads for other ages, how about us more experienced at living? And the youngings (he-he) should know about us. I am 50 and started riding three months ago (well, I was a level one rider when I was 12 years old). I am hooked on the one-wheel and have almost completed level three (except for that stomach-on-the-seat drill). I can jump mount, suicide mount, ride down a few stairs (one-at-a-time), hop down a bunch of stairs (okay, also one-at-a-time). I am working on idling (which, at least for me, is more difficult than learning how to ride) and SIF (still a long way off). I have been lurking on this forum several times a week all summer (you folks, and youtube, taught me how to ride–thanks). I live in Utah which is epic for my other hobbies: rock climbing, telemark skiing, and snowboarding. I started with a no-name 20” freestyle at the beginning of the summer, bought a Torker 20” DX a few weeks later, and just received my KH 24” from [aebike.com](http://aebike.com) three days ago (call them for prices). How about you other riders with 45+ years of life experience? --- _[View the full topic](https://unicyclist.com/t/are-you-45/94084)._
