Idling wheels are...

Well, someone's playthings, at least.

I've put about an hour and a half of practice into idling on my unicycle so far and it seems to be coming along well. I haven't got to the point where I can sit there and idle back and forth until the cows come home, but I'm at least to the point where I have some decent control over it.

It's one of the few unicycling skills that I can practice indoors here, so by the time spring rolls around I'll probably be able to idle in my sleep.

I suppose there's some other skills I could try if I get really bored once the snow flies, like hopping. I'm not a big fan of hopping, though; it's a unicycle, not a pogo-stick.
