minus-squarehenfredemars@infosec.publinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·16 days agoI’ve wanted to do this but I’m afraid at my age I’ll be seriously injured trying.
minus-squareover_clox@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·16 days agoI learned to ride when I was 17. It took me like 2 months to learn to ride. I just turned 42 today. If I didn’t already know how to mount and ride a unicycle already, I’d probably be like F that as well.

minus-squareover_clox@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·edit-216 days agoUsually yes, but it partly depends on how big the tire is and how tall the unicycle is… I learned on a 24 inch tire with 6 inch pedal cranks, not stupid tall. I wasn’t going for the circus, I just wanted to learn to ride.
