  1. ... and so do i.
    Moab is my motive to grab my unicycle, put it and myself into an
    airplane and have a look at the states overseas. Once I am there I want
    to cruise through the country. Therefore I am planning to stay for
    about 3 months in the US and Canada to see the country and perhaps meet
    some of you who have time and want to ride together.

    On 3rd of March I will arrive in San Francisco. I am planning to take
    part in the Humboldt Juggling Festival in Arcarta (March 9th -11th) and
    see a bit of the Californian westcoast. Of course I will be in Moab
    (March 23rd-25th)
    My further rough plans for the following crazy uni roadtrip are to see:

    California, Nevada and Utah in March
    Colorado, Idaho, Wyoming, Idaho in April
    Montana, Washington and British Columbia in May

    As you see my tour does not contain to many details at the moment. So I
    would be happy to get some hints, what an Austrian unicyclist should
    not miss in the US. I am looking for street, muni, trial spots, places
    to meet crazy or lazy unicyclists, fantastic tourist attractions and
    cheap places to stay for one or two nights with my uni.

    Has anyone tried to transport of a unicycle by greyhound busses? What
    is your experience with that? According to the website, bicycles must
    be packed in wood, canvas or other substantial container. Does that
    affect unicycles as well?

    I am grateful for all (insider) tips and look forward to meet hopefully
    a lot of unicyclists.

  3. Hey I live in Montana, If you come through the Missoula/Helena/Butte
    area I could easily meet you somewere. If you need any info about
    Montana or anything let me know.

    Sorry, I can't help you with packing a uni on a bus (i've never ridden
    one myself) But I bet you can take it apart and pack it into a
    suitcase..?

    Looks like I'll see you in Moab aswell!

    Excellent! We're currently planning a large group MUni ride in a great
    park not far from San Francisco on March 4th. (Rockville Hills Park).
    And of course, you should come to Berkeley on March 6th for unicycle
    basketball.

  6. Wow, wow. On your way out you should stop by in the nation's capitol!
    Washington DC. I live right outside it, and if you have time/want
    to/can afford to stop for a night on your way out I'm sure you would
    enjoy it and I would love to meet up with you.

  10. I have brought my unicycle with me a couple times in greyhound, I just
    tossed it in a dufflebag right before they asked for my luggage, they
    didn't care.

  11. @jimbonones
    thanks for your hint about the garbage bags.
    did someone made bad expiriance wih it?

    @tholub
    That realy sounds perfect.

    @uni_jim
    banff sounds great to me... but im sure its still very big, do you know
    some special routs that are great for unicycling?
    It can be real hard and difficuld rides that would be fun 🙂

    @scrob, maximus
    i worry about Texas and WashingtonDC will be very far away from my
    trip. I mainly will stay near rocky mountains.

    Hey David,

    I'm sure you'll be in touch with Kris when you're in BC but if he's
    busy or out of town you can also drop me a line (pm me) or reach some
    local riders via www.vanuni.com. Hopefully you can make a group ride
    (we normally ride on Sundays) as it would be fantastic to meet you.

    Cheers,
    - James
