    She owns 15 unicycles? Now I don't feel guilty spending money to purchase a second, folding bicycle. Sure, it is fascinating to watch a unicyclist but the unicycle is far more difficult to learn and still as difficult to ride. That is why the unicycle has never caught on as a major mode of recreation nor commuting. The two-wheel bicycle will rule supreme forever.

      The speed on a unicycle depends on two factors: wheel size and crank length. With my 20" wheel / 135mm cranks I go on an average of 9kmh/h (comfortably), on my 26" / 137mm cranks I go about 13km/h.

      I am an avid unicyclist myself. The best way I can describe it is balancing a broomstick on your palm. Steering is partially leaning but it's also like spinning in an office chair using only your upper body, but if you ride for long enough you eventually get away with doing anything with your arms, steering with only your shoulders and start-stop forces in the cranks. Just remember, no matter how good a unicyclist may seem, there was a point when they were entirely dependent on walls and handholds. Also, If you know how to pogo stick congratulations you already know how to hop a unicycle.

      Men, on average, have heavier skeleton, more muscle mass(mainly due to testosterone), more efficient respiratory system.
