I probably learned the stupid way. I just rode normally trying to use less
and less pressure on my right peddle until I could take my right foot off
the peddle briefly. Eventually, after a number of minor crashes, I could
ride left footed, but I haven't gone through the pain to learn to ride right
footed.

- Well, I might as well put out a unicycling question

O | -| - a hand on a wall. I've tried that a couple times
\--/ - and it seems to work, but I have a lack of usable
/-+-\ O - walls, and have only done this at a couple juggling
==---- |----== - meetings that I've been to. Is this a good approach,
| | - are there other ideas?
