I ride with the traffic, figuring that a unicycle is just a slow bike (or even
fast. I usually pass some bicyclists when I ride the bike trails).

I haven’t put anything on traffic riding in the faq, but I’ll accept
contributions.
I ride on the street on neighborhood streets, and on the sidewalk on major
roads. I’ve seen too many cars drive in the opposite lane to stay away from me,
and I don’t want to cause a wreck.
