I can unicycle a bit. The reason I stopped was 100% the groin issue. There's more weight on your crotch than a typical bicycle and the way the seat is curved makes it very easy to smash testicles. It's a fun activity, but also a good way to end a bloodline.
- eru 7y agoI only noticed that problem in the beginning, and after a while you figure out how to sit. Granted, the longest I continually used my unicycle was for commuting every once in a while. So about 3km in one go. Otherwise it was short stints working on tricks.
- city41 7y agoIt might depend on the person. I used to be an avid unicyclist, including commuting to work on one every day, and my groin always ached from it. Adjusting, sitting up, etc, never really helped much. It's the main reason I don't really ride any real distance anymore. I did find that barends helped however, push on them with your hands and you can get some relief. The unicycle in the article has them.
