How unicycling saved my life 

Just a great story and thanks for sharing. As a Gen Xer, I am always impressed with the younger generations (males) I work with that are so open about their inner struggles. I love the struggles that multi day touring provides. Also you do not give up, you just find ways not to do things. Cycle touring teaches you that daily. Cycling gives you access to freedom and clarity. You have exchanged one addiction for another, cycling is your new drug. Best of luck to you. If you are ever in Texas, I will act as your interpreter while here.

Amazing timing, just watched Ed Pratt's last video of Ed and Sylvian in Latvia, and here you are with Sylvian. Strange forces at work here. True love story, love for life.

I congratulate you from the bottom of my heart for your perseverance. brutal performance.🎉🎉❤

You breathe 'lust for life' ! Good luck in your endeavours !

Inspiration for a whole generation What you accomplished is absolutely amazing

I also discovered that nature and exercise is good for my mental health, and cycle touring is a great way to experience both 😊 Thank you for sharing your story

lol just watched that one thanks

Oh man, that hit me right in the feels. I'm happy for you that you found your way by unicycling through so many countries. I did a couple road-trips as well and you and Ed Pratt are really inspiring me to try one on a unicycle ! Good thing going for me is I know how to ride it, although a big wheel must be really challenging ! I wish you the best for your new adventures, keep going 🧡

Just amazing. Thanks for sharing your story.

Thank you so much. You are an inspiration 🎉

Thanks for sharing your story. Appreciate the vulnerability and honesty 🤙

Amazing story. Thank you for sharing.

Wow, what a beautiful story. You are inspiring!

This is an important video. Thanks for posting your adventure.

Enjoyed the video, start to finish. Certainly the adventure and experience is worth more than gold . At the end of the video, I can't help but think "The grass is always greener on the other side" this thinking leads one to Constantly flee bad habits and situations without actually dealing with them. It sounds like there is a lot of struggle within you and I hope you find that inner peace.

Great video man !

Welcome back to RU-vid! And thanks for telling your story. If you’re ever around Sweden let’s unicycle 😃

Well done for turning your life around 👏👏👏

Great story🤙🏽. Can I ask you where did you get your fender and packs

Great to see you share your story - and being so open is amazing to see 🎉 I think unicycling and helping with mental health aren’t that uncommon a union. I don’t think my story really counts as much as yours does - but I did “find” unicycling in 2012 when at a low ebb with anxiety and Drama School study pressures, and stage fright (it’s real!) which all weren’t doing me good - and at the time it was what spurred me view uni-riding as: Mind Your Balance, Balance Your Mind >> it’s me: mindbalance. It’s since become THE guiding force for holistic good in my life and purpose and one of only three core achievements I’m deeply bound to and proud of. My kids will unicycle I feel sure; I believe it does you so much good across many, many levels. And who doesn’t love the look of spokes spinning freely on a mono-cycle ⚙️❤️

Thank you for sharing your story! I'm very much on a similar journey currently. During the pandemic/lockdown, my perspective of life was reduced to the confines of my 6.2" phone screen. I was addicted to TikTok, Instagram and the like. I began consuming cannabis edibles regularly and struggled with moderating it. I sat around in bed all day, hardly moving and eating nothing but fast food. I told myself it was okay because what else was there to do? Until eventually, I felt the need to get back into shape. I tried walking, jogging, running, and the like but none of it ever held as firmly as my teenage love for flatland unicycling. So at 27, 12 years since my last ride, I bit the bullet and bought a brand new KH20 2023 uni (which part-by-part was soon replaced by a KH/Mad4One hybrid). Since then I've really enjoyed regaining the tricks I used to be able to do, as well as the health benefits, such as mobility and weight loss (18 lbs down in 3 months! 🎉) And now, if all goes according to plan, I'll begin my own 440+ mile uni ride across the state of Utah, USA, inspired by the amazing ride performed by Ed Pratt. I can't wait!

Good Job …!!!🎉

I can't imagine cycle touring with another person. Maybe for a couple of days but no way on a long trip, I always go alone. The freedom is the best part, having another person along takes that away.

great story very inspiring, would really love to meet up with you somewhere on the path, stay safe stay hungry!

Was thinking singapore or western australia before I watched your video

I have a bad back too but I still make sure I get out once a week and unicycle cross country trails. 🎉

200th liker !

One dqay i will be the first person to cycle to every continent !

Well done, my friend. While am much further along on my "ride" than you (70 this past November), I have had similar challenges with more than my share of failures, and so I understand at least some of your challenges and doubts. So, without coming at you too strong or too soon, may I share that my faith in Christ and his love for ALL of us without condition has been my one constant foundation through it all. So may I humbly suggest you find a Bible somewhere (any Christian Church anywhere will gladly give you one) and look up a few verses. An oversimplification to remember is this - the OLD Testament (first "half" of the Bible, beginning with Genesis), essentially tells of the PROMISE of the Christ and the fact that even before being born and living amongst us, He was with God, the Father "in (the) Beginning". My favorite Book in the OT is, hands down, Isaiah, one of the "major" Prophets. Chapter 40, verse 31 is a well known and cherish verse reminding us that " . . . those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles, they will run (unicycle??) and not grow weary, walk and not be faint". Or, in the New Testament (the NT is, essentially, the FULFILLMENT of the PROMISE spoken of in the OT), you can go to the Book of Matthew and read Chapter 11, verse 28 where you will be encouraged to "come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest". So here's wishing you a safe and wondrous journey, both on your cycle and beyond, and may all your roads lead you to a deeper understanding of who we all are as creations of a Loving and Forgiving God, who chose to come and live amongst us (Christ was both "fully God and fully human" . . . yes, a miracle, no doubt, but this is the power of the Almighty and NOT something any normal human could ever do or be), and then die on the cross that our sins (and sinful nature) may be fully forgiven that ultimately we may stand before him after our (bodily) death and be admitted to Heaven through our faith in His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, in whose name I pray these things for you. Amen

When the journey is all over, then what, no job no home 😢
