    I'm pleased to finally be able to announce the first session of the
    revived Bristol Freaks unicycle hockey club. For those of you near
    other Bristols around the World, this is the one in the south west of
    England.

    8:30pm, Wednesday 25 October, at the St Pauls Community Sports Academy
    on Newfoundland Road. http://tinyurl.com/y6o8n2

    The cost for this session will be GBP4.00 per person, though this may
    be reduced for subsequent sessions, depending on the level of
    attendance. In fact, the venue and time slot may also vary from week to
    week, as it's not possible to make a regular booking until January.

    Unicycles used in the hall must have clean, non-marking tyres (I'll
    bring a rag to clean them in case of rain), and plastic-ended pedals
    and saddles (I have a couple of spare pairs of plastic saddles I can
    lend).

    I know there are a lot of unicyclists in and around Bristol who don't
    read this list, so please spread the word to anyone who might be
    interested. Please also bring spare hockey sticks if you have them, as
    I'm hoping to recruit some new blood on the Bristol to Bath ride this
    weekend.

    Might be worth cross posting this to Rec.juggling as a lot of
    bristolians read that and although they only ride casually it might
    encourage a few of them.

    Probably better still to post it to the bristol_jugglers mailing list.
    Are you on that list, Pete, or shall I post it?

    Done. And in a few weeks I may be able to get a colleague along. I
    discovered at lunchtime that one of our support staff has bought a
    unicycle in order to get fit. When I suggested giving hockey a try
    once he starts to get the hang of riding, he seemed very keen.

    calendar of upcoming meetings and events.
