36" Advice for a complete noob.

For a while I have been toying with the idea of purchasing a 36"
unicycle. After seeing the RTL pictures, I was inspired to finally
make the purchase. I read through some of the 'other threads'
(http://www.unicyclist.com/forums/showthread.php?t=70966) and have
pretty much settled on buying the Coker Big One, without a brake and
with 150mm cranks(then later switching to 125s or shorter, and possibly
buying a brake).
I want to know what some other purchases I should make are as far as
distance unicycling goes. I will eventually get around to buying a
cycle computer, but what about other necessities?
What kinds of rides should I do to start out? Should I learn to idle
or will hopping in place do?
Is there any other advice you can give me as the (soon to be) owner of
a 36er?
Thanks in advance.
