Hi all,
Well, I just went out and bought myself a unicycle (Sem/XL 24"). Why?
Just liked felt like it, I guess. I wanted something that would get me
outside and maybe move me around a bit better than foot power.
Rollerblades and bicycles are done to death.
Now that I've got this contraption o'death, I'm wondering what people's
experiences are with the best places to ride/practice? My apartment
complex is basically one large hill, with regular flat parts for people
to park on. But I can't really practice there, there's too many cars for
me to potentially hit. The ideal place to practice would seem to be our
tennis courts. They're sunken, so there's this big wall around them that
I could hold on to. But apartment rules say "No rollerblades or
bicycles" are allowed on the tennis courts, and I haven't tested the
interpretation of that rule yet (thus I'm not getting my hopes up about
it). My parents live on a small road with few cars, which is where I've
been practicing, but the pavement up there is old, cracked and
micro-hilly, so I keep falling into these ruts and losing my momentum.
Any suggestions for places I could look? I plan on taking a drive down
to the local little league park today and testing out their parking lot
(late afternoon all the games are over).
Batting about .997 for landing on my feet, Duane
