So I just got home from work and I'm now able to mount. My legs were kind of sore after I finally got the hang of it but when I wake up tomorrow morning I'm going to be back at it! I think I almost got it! Wish it was easier to upload videos here. Oh and I finally took it out to the street after being able to cross every room in my house

Before long the wheel will become part of your body and soul, and you won't want to go anywhere without it :)

Just a little update folks. I took it out to the street but still feels like I'm going to fall off when I put my weight on my toes. Going to try again in an hour or two

Speed is the key to succes.  All beginners (incl. myself) thinks that keeping the balance at low speed is essential.  This is wrong, you can learn that afterwards.  Wish you good progress :cheers:

Maybe try keeping the feet entirely in contact with the pedals.  ie: toes and heel

Then just try leaning forward slightly.  Bend at the ankles.

A house is too small to learn how to ride. Not enough room to correct for imbalance, or to go fast enough. A parking lot would be safer than a street, unless there aren't a lot of cars on that street.

I remember when I was practicing in the bedroom and hall way. That was around 4 sessions ago and now doing laps round a car park and circling lamp posts. Though I'm still learning.

It's quite cool to remember the achievements made from the bedroom to now :thumbup:
