That's why I have soooo many great hiker/biker comments in my videos, including the classic female jogger who said, as she went by, "you're so fun to watch!", to which I immediately replied, "So are you!"

These two girls joined me in a group peace sign.

Hey guys, wondering if you're familiar with the expression "under 18 will get you 20"?

Hey Terry! How come we are apparently the oldest riders on this thread and the only ones showing visuals of chick-magnet experience? Is there a reason I wonder?

I meet so many young kids, as we all can do, whilst out riding, boys and girls, and I find it exhilarating to enthuse over unicycling with a view to encouraging their participation

I've had so many opportunities to get pics with female hikers/bikers and just in general, but I usually just chat with them while I'm riding. Recently, while 36ering at the beach, a pretty large assemblage of female runners were tagging along, and we were chatting for a good mile. Would've made for some cool pics!

Agreed, and me too!
. . . But posting pics of children in this thread makes for an easy target. Sharks circling in the water and all.

Then there's the opposite side of the age spectrum! MUni appreciation is ageless!

Saw thread and had to post reply

Newbie to the community, but saw this thread and had to reply after laughing at the posts. good way to waste time at work.

I proposed to my wife with a unicycle in-lieu of a ring. Not sure if that is considered a chick magnet or not, but when she was done inspecting it, she asked me (without taking her eyes off her new muni) to repeat what i had just said to her..

Yes, I have heard of that little ditty. . . . . .and sometimes it more about your fur cod-piece rather than the exact number of wheels you ride, though having both dialed in will certainly attract attention. . . not all of it the kind you really want. Turns out that some rural high school girls are drawn to stylish faux-fur cod pieces and green unitards.

Photo credit to Naturequack, who rocked this 100 mile ride we were on last year. . . .putting many two wheeled riders to shame.

Do "Zombie Chicks" count?

These "Zombie" chicks were at a World Record Zombie March in Seattle. Terribly cute but also dangerous.
