We are 6526 members on the forum right now and I’ve got the feeling that most of us are over 40!?? I ask beacause my girlfriend think I’am too old too ride, I’am 51, just a kid..right? 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steve454 3,752 Posted May 12 (edited) If you click on the blue date October 3, 2015, it will take you to the poll. I suspect that even though this was more than two years ago, the demographics are probably near the same, maybe starting to skew a little younger as more people are becoming aware of electric unicycles. Lately it seems a lot of younger riders have joined the forum. Edited May 12 by steve454 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You would think women would greatly admire a guy over 50 that remains a kid at heart. My wife absolutely loves me riding. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edddeus 611 Posted May 13 I must say, before discovering EUC's, I wasn't much of an outgoing person as I am now. That's changed thanks to EUC's. Anything is possible with it, it's an extension of my Legs. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scubadragosan 64 Posted May 13 58 here...have been riding for 2 years...can maneuver in any directions, dance, going backward, one leg--left or right. Now learning 1 leg backward, 360 degree spins, jumps, dream about handstands....forward and back somersaults. My wife 65, a conservative rider, no tricks for her, can't afford breaking any bones or face plants. 3 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WARPed1701D 2,530 Posted May 15 I'm now 40. Started at 39.5. I honestly don't feel old though and never have done. Apart form a few physical aches, and a degree of increased responsibility for myself and others I feel no different now than I did in my twenties. I think that is probably a trend here. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
