Why not a unicycle. Thats what they kinda like. but with seat and you kick instead of pedal. I'm gonna get a unicycle and instead of taking my normal bike on the train and bike to college I will take that...proberly only once though lol

Unicycles aren't very long journey friendly.  You can't go very fast and if you stop pedaling you stop moving.

I used to like skateboarding but I got board and could't afford a longboard for cruising.  Plus, all the signs at the beach near me say "No skateboarding" on the prom, not "No magicwheeling" lol.

that would be why i only did it once lol. train station to college is about a mile or so. I would not do the steep uphill bit but once near the castle I would.

Yeah, although unicylces are good fun and give you such a great sense of achivement once you have learnt to ride them they aren't the best for long journeys.
Lets just say the women would find it a lot more comfortable than the men  ;)

If you do wanna use a unicycle for actual distant get a unicycle with a large wheel diameter. 20-24inches would be a minimum really.

All things are hard when you first start out.  I thought it would be as easy as using a skateboard but it isn't.  I will be using wrist pads from now on though and none baggy trousers.  Mine got caught in the wheel and brought me to the ground with a thump.

My wife is learning to unicycle (this years Christmas present)

It would seem to be an art that takes some time to master.

Had a go and found it really difficult
