You pass a stranger in the street and they point and shout “D’you know you’ve
got a wheel missing!”. You’re not riding a unicycle.
Any more???
Re: [You know you’re a unicycle nut when…]
I did a bunch of these a couple of years back. More recently I’ve compiled a
“uncicyle purity test” using some of that material and a lot of new stuff. For
those not familiar with the concept of a purity test, it is a test to find out
how normal you are versus how much of a unicycle nut you are.
I’m looking for somewhere to host it at the moment as it uses a cgi program
(perl script) to process the results.

If you want me to host it I’ll be quite happy.

Re: You know you’re a unicycle nut when…
well… I started a club at my college… previously, I’d been used to people
saying “oh, wow! a unicycle!” when I rode by. Not long after I started the club,
I heard someone say in a most un-impressed tone “oh, there goes another
unicycle”. (And I found that response much more gratifying than the previous)

When strangers call round to your house, because they want to teach their kid
to unicycle, and you are the guy in town that people tell them to go and see.

How about this, I wrote it back in May '99 (and I accomplished the last
one!) -Rick
YOU MIGHT BE A UNI FREAK IF:
The first thing you ask when you regain consciousness is “How’s my unicycle?”
There are more pedals than wheels in your garage.
Your big goal for the summer is to learn how to coast.
You can recite the 10 skill levels by heart.
Your family immediately yells out your name when a unicycle appears on TV.
You lean into the turn, then realize you’re in a car.
Someone exclaims “look at the giraffe” and you think “unicycle”.
Someone says “USA”, “IOU”, or “UFO”, and you think “unicycle”.
Someone says “muni”, and you think “unicycle”.
The walls in your house are all gouged up from floor to knee level.
You scope out parks, sidewalks, trails, and parking lots for interesting
places to ride.
You fantasize about riding in unusual places, like the aisle of a 747 or the
“pool of balls” at the city kiddy land.
You think things like, “what if Coker made a Big Wheel Giraffe?” or, “I wonder
if I could make an ultimate wheel out of a Spinergy rim?”
EVERYONE in the neighborhood knows who you are.
Every now and then you have to pump up your seat.
Your legs are rarely blemish-free.
You can’t even remember where your bicycle IS anymore.
You find yourself rocking back and forth on your heels when you are
waiting in line.
You enjoy putting on your socks and shoes while balancing on one leg.
Your friends see you walking and ask “where’s your unicycle?”
You hear about someone riding across a railroad trestle, and think, “that’s
an idea!”.
Your unicycles have names.
You actually become an amateur metallurgist as a result of researching potential
axle materials.
You watch the same IUF skill levels video 6 times and are still not
bored with it.
You feel obligated to learn how to juggle.
You find yourself holding onto the front of your car seat with your right hand
as you drive.
The cost of your unicycle collection makes you finally start thinking about
buying household insurance.
You get hooked on “The Big Comfy Couch” because of Major Bedhead.
Your kid brings you and your unicycle to “Show & Tell”.
You know EXACTLY how to fit six unicycles into the trunk of your car.
You plan to be riding a unicycle at the turn of the millennium.

I just found this old thread and figured that some people probably haven’t seen it.
Also has anyone come up with new additions to the list?
I actually thought about my car being stolen as I always have my $700 Coker and $300 trials in it.
I could easily replace the car.
You know your a unicycle nut when…
Your home page is this website 
It would be,but my parents want their google news homepage…
It is now, and i really like you avatar…
yea how do i do that? google is mine too and they have button that u just push.
you know your a unicycle nutwhen…
when your first five bookmarks are all devoted to unicycles.
YOu spend all day at work plotting how to get off early so that you can fit 1/2 hours practice in before it gets dark.

Your uni sits in the back seat of your car at work every day just in case someone asks if you can ride it…
Chosen, to set a different webpage as your homepage, simply do the following if you have a Windows: click Start, go to the Control Panel, click Network and Internet Connections, and Internet Options. Under the General tab, the first thing down is how to change your homepage. 
Wait. How much is your car worth?
Okay, maybe the car is better insured than the unicycles. I know this because unfortuantely I’ve been there. My first Miyata was stolen along with my car in 1983. Though I eventually replaced it, this took time and a re-assembly of the various parts I had on there. Fortunately Miyatas were in stock at the time. At the wrong time of year I might have had to wait six months!
You know your a unicycle nut when…
Your bored in the office and you try gliding using your wheelie chair.
Since the thread’s been bumped, those people who haven’t already may like to take the “unicycle purity test” aka Unicycle fanatic test.
It is now hosted at Unicycle.com Uk
here is the link:
http://www.unicycle.uk.com/uni-fanatic.asp
The observant will notice is has been ported from perl to asp.
