4 Questions for a unicyclist

Greg Solon, senior

Unicyclist

When do you usually ride your unicycle?
“I usually ride around after class. I would consider riding it to class, but it’s really tiring because you have to pedal a lot.”

What are some of the problems you encounter?

“It’s hard to ride to class because sidewalks are uneven, and you’re going so slowly. It’s hard to keep it on the road. I thought about taking it to class a couple days, but how would you lock it up?”

Good question. Does anybody ever think you’re weird?
“My freshman year, all of the guys on the floor were kind of shocked – it made them take a second glance. But eventually they were riding it down the halls.”

We would’ve done the same thing. How long did it take to learn to ride a unicycle?

“I’ve had it since seventh grade or eighth grade, and I used to ride it around the living room. It took about two weeks to be able to ride without falling.”
