  1. Hello all!

    My Name is Michael, call me mike, and I'm approximatelly a level four
    unicyclist. I've been accepted to the quebec school of circus arts,
    spetializing in unicycling and juggling, and I'm working as a
    unicycling instructor and secretary for the schools unicycling club. I
    would like to begin networking with other unicycling groups to expand
    the clubs horisons and attract more people to the sport. I've checked
    out the unicon XIII wite and decided that I could probably find
    unicycling events closer than switzerland.

    I want to know if there is such a thing as a canadian unicycling
    championships, UNICON style? Is there such a thing as a canadian
    unicycling federation?
    If not, seeing as there are by and far enough unicyclists in canada to
    form one (the toronto unicyclists seem quite organized and we invade
    ottawa regularly), let's! I'm thinking our first event could be
    sometime early next summer, before unicon 13.

    How many people would:

    1) Participate in a canadian unicycling championships (unicon style
    -whatever that means), even if it meant traveling across the country,
    2) Organize local teams for a group freestyle event,
    2) Help organize a canadian unicycling championships unicon style,
    3) Think that it would work?

  2. I'm over here in NL, but a trip to a uni-con here in Canada is FAR
    cheaper than the flight to Memphis. For me, meeting other unicyclists
    would be worth it, completely aside from any sort of championships.
    Having a weekish event where all the different types of riding and more
    can be shown off and participated in would be sweet though. I'm for it
    😄

    enough money to travel.

  5. "I think that it could be really nice. I would go for sur, well if I

    why did you do 2 threads?"

    I didn't realize I had... 🙂

    -as for having enough money to travel, well, that's the problem! If
    they could get to it for free, everybody would come!

    Perhaps what we could do is make it a week long event full of
    activities so that the cost per-day of attendance decreases. If we
    could attract large numbers of people, we could get sponsors to
    aleviate the costs of transportation.

    John -thank's for your input 🙂 -have any other suggestions based on
    your experience? how did the american unicycling organization get
    going?

    My intuition is that the association should start as an event within
    the toque games, and grow from there. What I would most like to see is
    a group artistic freestyle event, as I mentioned earlier. That way
    groups of beginners would have a way of participating.
