I learned how to ride a unicycle last year, it wasn't too difficult.
Would you say it requires more stability than a bicycle?
And a lot more balance, you need to lean with the movements.
So since there is no handle bar the steering is pedal-driven?
It's more like you need to lean in the direction you want to go. I think it'd be difficult to have to steer with your feet. Have you ever tried?
I have never tried but I've always been fascinated by what I see in circuses
I think it could make for great exercise too rather than entertainment. My calves and thighs are always very sore after.
Have you tried to play any sports or activities with it such as unicycle hockey?
