now that I look back on it… Nothing’s funnier than being followed by a tone deaf homeless dude trying to hum the circus tune, lol. At the time I was somewhat annoyed. He then proceeded to try to bum cigarettes, and then caught himself and said “oh I guess you probably don’t smoke, so you can stay healthy and keep doing that” to which I responded there were other reasons I didn’t smoke. He asked why and I said I just prefer to stay healthy so I can enjoy my life to the fullest, and not end up w/ cancer some day. It appeared this was not a concept that had occurred to him, lol
Whilst unicycling around an area favoured by elderly people to walk their dogs i had one (a man not a dog 
) come up to me. He said that seeing me had made his day.
I know this wasnt a witty comment but it made my day knowing that i had made someone elses day. God i love unicycling
A couple on the same theme recently.
On one commute last week, a bicyclist passed me saying “you punks and your fixed gears.”
Today another passed me saying, “dude, you’re so much cooler than all those fixies.”
To both I had the same reply: “just getting rid of the parts you don’t need!”
One bicyclist in a group of three said “Keep fighting the good fight” as I rode past them.
There is a school near my house that I ride at often because of urban obstcles and things. Seems like whenever I go there I get a “hey look its the unicycle man!” or a “look,he’s riding on a unicycle” and one time I got a “hey daddy,he’s riding a bike with one wheel!” from all of the kids on the playgrounds Haha.they all just make me laugh.
riding home from school I someone shouted “get a bike you f*cking faggot!” followed by a full gatorade bottle hurling at my head. I just can’t help but love how generous people are, I mean come on, It’s not every day someone hands out a free gatorade!
did you catch it, open it, and start drinking it while riding? that would have been hard core
While riding my Nimbus 36 on the street, half way up one of the steepest hills I’m able to climb, struggling a bit because I’m not used to the short cranks, a man driving down stops, rolls down his window and asks me directions. I point that it’s back the way he came, while thinking, give me a freaking break.
Then the insensitive man proves what an idiot he is by backing up the hill to get back to the intersection, with traffic already backed up behind him.
I didn’t wait around, didn’t hear a crash, just glad he didn’t run me over.
Made the hill.

I caught a skateboard someone threw at me.
Unfortunately it was broken–But now I have half a skateboard!
As some of you may know it’s getting colder in norway and it’s snowy and icey.. well i was out riding my 29er with my dog.. and then this man on a bike comes up and said “GOD DAMN!!! I WASN’T SURE I HAD THE BALLS TO TAKE MY BIKE OUT!! AND YOU COME ON ONE WHEEL!!” and I’m writing this in capslock because he was yelling it.. like i was deaf.. seriously…
it was awesome 
Yeah, I remember one comment I got last winter during my first test run with the studded tyre on my 26. There was ice everywhere and people were having enough trouble staying on their feet, while I was casually rolling along on the wheel.
While waiting for the green light to cross a street a guy asks me slightly uncertainly “Did you lose a bet or are you doing this on a dare?”. I just replied that I did it for the fun of it. I don’t think he accepted that explanation, but at least he didn’t get in my way when the light turned green 
How did you make your studded tyre?
No need to make one when those nice Finns manufacture them by the bucketload I use this one from Nokian.
“I’m going to do Three Mountain” said Ruby enthusiastically referring to her attempts at freemounting before learning to ride. I’ve explained to her what freemounting is but yet she seems to remember it as Three Mountain.
these two road biker guys in full spanex were sitting on the side of the road changing a tire and they were clearly trying to be like the "cooL guys’
so of course they have to ask me…where is your other wheel
I just told them i took off my training wheel cause having a second wheel was for girls.
and this girl with them started laughing and they got really embarrassed.
Not sure if it was because they couldnt change their tire or because the girl was laughing at them. it was funny all the same
Kids in a daycare today sayd…" My grandma’s better than you!"
My friend replyed, “Oh! Id love to meet her!”
“The man said ‘look dear, a penny farthing’…i just smiled and thought to myself 'yeah, thats right, a penny farthing…”
It’s really irritating to me, but when I do a search on Ebay for unicycles, invariably there’s several pictures or figurines with penny-farthings which the ignorant sellers have called unicycles. Guess they figure that little wheel doesn’t count.
I got some great responses from skaters today. They thought it was amazing, took loads of photos and one of them learnt to pedal 3 rotations in 5 minutes (I guess the balance transfers over). It’s not a quote as such but it was a good response.
Forrest Ranger, We were told to bring you in for riding before the trail opened.
They had grand opening of a trail in Hyde Park NY today. My being a few minutes early and the only person on a unicycle (or a bicycle), I didn’t feel like being a spectacle at the ribbon cutting so I sneaked around the ribbon and was the first one on the trail. Had it to myself. Turns out the opening ceremony was delayed so much that I made the trip to the end and back, arriving just as the first crowd were starting to hike.
Luckily, the Ranger’s were amused and just joking with me.
Had TONS of comments today too many to remember really, lots of impressed people talked to us and asked us to show some stuff to them. One shy little boy with his parents asked me and Phil(catinabag1) to show him some tricks “Hi… ummm can you umm… show us… ummm how ummm you umm ride umm those and umm show some tricks please?” it was sooo cute haha. Me and Phil were riding this one wall and a whole photography class came up to us and asked if they could take pictures for their class. that was cool I ended up doing a few unispins and wheelwalking and stuff I even rode most of the skinney with photography students heads and expensive cameras inches from my head I also fell crotch first into a really point stabby bush that was on one side of the bush. Then we were at another place outside a dumpy apartment complex playing on a set of parking barriers and a planter box type thing that was falling apart and some guy came by to go into his apartment and he said “it’s about time someone put this crap to good use.” and another guy was heading into his apartment and We were riding and he said “what if you did some sort of backside 180 and then rode off it?” Then I did it and he said “Man that was the Scariest yet coolest thing I’ve seen all day, I was really hung over until that point.” and he went inside. After that a guy came up and started videoing us on his cell phone to send to his sister in another state. Then we went to PGE park and rode and a guy who was probably high and drunk came up to us and said “F*** unicycling man, take up skateboarding and alcohol abuse and you’ll be happy… Well maybe not but yeah forget unicycling man, skateboarding and alcohol.” Phil was laughing and he got in Phil’s face and said “What it was good advice man.” As he walked away he said something about unicycling that we didn’t hear but it was funny.
