Hmmm… I also want to do pole as a hobby…
“He’s got a frog!”
(The frog is because I’m an Enlightened Ingress player - it’s the unofficial team symbol).

How do you have that water bottle attached?
Occasionally cyclist 
will match my speed and ask me questions about unicycling

“Do a wheelie”
“Move it, Popeye” (idk why they said popeye)
Lots of “wow” and “that’s cool”.

Bolts. The frame has braze-ons front and back. You can see the unused front braze-ons above and below the frog (there’s no bottle cage on the front because it would interfere with my knees).

Thanks for explaining that one. It really confused me.
From yesterdays ride:
“Respect”
“you’re doing a good job” From a biker going uphill , as I was riding downhill.
Best one of
“No gears I suppose?” From a pedestrian as I was stomping up a steep road.
I answered the question but did not stop for a talk, too steep to get going again.
Practicing freemounts in a parking lot today, a father teaching his teenage son how to parallel park said “Impressed! I wouldn’t try that if you paid me a billion dollars.” A few minutes later he came back to say “I hope you get paid a lot to do that.”
From an older but active women who frequently walks the park: [shocked voice] “Oh my. You are doing so well”
Shortly after from a guy getting out of his car: “Oh that’s f***ing bada$$”
Young girl after I passed her: “That’s cool”
The husband of the original woman (they were now walking together): “Looking Good”
All of above was from one ride to the park on my 20”.
Now for some past muni rides before I joined Unicyclist.com
A guy hiking: “Has anyone ever told you you are a sick b@$t@rd!” 
Mtb rider: “Oh man, now I got to lose a wheel?”
Hiker: “Someone stole your other wheel”
That was actually the first and only time I have gotten the king of cliche comments; so far…
From a group of women hiking: (while I passed them before going downhill)“Oh, I wanted to see him go down ” (during and after the descent) “you are a bad@$$!” “You’re a rockstar!”
An older mtb rider:”Do you know of anywhere that gives lessons?”
A woman on mtb: “I have one of those but I can’t ride it out here”
A guy hiking: “I used to ride unicycle” and later “If you want to see some cool unicycles search ‘Coker’”

Bus honking, coming up on me from behind on a narrow country road. I thought he should slow down instead of trying to scare me (as a rule, you never honk at cyclist in DK).
A car passing me, I clearly saw him handling his phone as if he just took a picture of me. Again, maybe he should focus on steering instead, huh.
“You look good as you come riding”, my neighbour after I came back home. He passed me earlier in his car.
“Now that is full-on burger!”
Please don’t tell me that’s a phrase now…
Thumb-up from a guy in a car. That’s it.
I think I have reached that stage where most of the locals know there is a guy on a big unicycle riding around.
Occasionally, I still get a big grin, which is always nice to see.
I wish I had that.
The 2 times I had a cyclist slow down beside me was to rub it in my face, I was missing a wheel…
Yeah, it’s hilarious [not]
If only I would have been more stable on my uni, I should just push them off the cycle path with their bad remarks. Like… “Say what!?, what are you doing in the ditch, don’t you even have control over your two-wheeler”
I hyperextended my knee last week and I’ve been taking a break from the unicycle for a few days, so while bicycling with my dog yesterday I had someone ask, “where’s the unicycle?”
