Weird things you have accomplished

190. Thanks! It's my ONLY unique skill. I tried rollerblades once. They're dangerous!

I somehow decided (after perusing the Sears & Roebuck catalog) that I wanted a unicycle. I was in 2nd grade. I got the unicycle for either Christmas or my birthday (can't remember now...) and it took me the better part of 2 years to learn how to ride it. Mostly because I was too small for the unicycle. I held onto a brick wall around our carport and struggled along until one day I rode a a few feet. Then I progressed to mounting the unicycle when not holding onto to something. Then I was on my way (on one wheel!) My cousin and my good friend could ride too, so we had a team of sorts.

Unicycle riding requires great quadriceps strength, good balance and endurance (as well as general physical well being.)

I should try riding again sometime soon. Now I just need a new uni...
