i didnt really think this would be the best thread on rec. sports soo i thought it would be good here:)

Sometimes, I think it is weird that I am riding it.

I think “man I’m AWESOME”

i get that when i look in a reflection of myself…on the uni :roll_eyes:

yea it is weird

Only when I wake up riding. I guess sleep-walking got too easy so I took on a new sleep-sport.

Who was it that said unicycling felt close to flying?

A reflection in a window or a shadow in profile can make it look weird and make me realize this is a little strange. But when looking down it all looks completely normal to me.

I actually do do it sometimes. I think it’s because I always thought it would be hard and others think its hard also, so I think wow im doing it…and im good at it…and its a piece of cake to ride this thing.

You know, as soon as I saw that it was you who posted, I saw that coming…

sometimes, when I look straight down and see that I have only ONE point of contact with the ground.

I only notice when I ride by a fairly reflective window or see my shadow, mostly just when My family and people I let try say “you make that thing look easy.”

I get it sometimes when I’m just riding. I’m like - hey, man!! I’m riding a unicycle!

It’s a great feeling.

i got that feeling the day after i got it. and i sort of still do. 5 years ago i couldnt have seen myself waking up at 6 on a saturday morning to go and ride a unicycle down a mountain!

Not anymore as I’m usually doing it on purpose.

But I think I did get some of that during my first year or so of riding. Ah, the good old days (when there were only a handful of unicycles to choose from and they all sucked by today’s standards)…

I sometimes just kinda thikn about how easily it is to jump up and off things. I will think back to how hard it was to get up steps, and now I think how easily it is to get up benches, and I just think ‘wow!’

Sometimes the improvements and things done by people with unis are just amazing and almost seem impossable.

i agree. i used to watch videos and go ‘holy sh**, thats impossible’ now i can actually do some of those tricks.

I’ve had people comment “good job” or “how neat,” etc. while I’ve been riding and I totally miss what they’re talking about. I just smiled and thought “what’s so cool about…ooooh…” :slight_smile:

I agree

-I agree unicycling is a lifestyle!
