I Love a Parade...

Wonderful!!!

I'm so glad that you had a good parade. Parades are a blast!

The MUC had a parade last night, too. We rode the Collierville, TN
holiday parade and had a great time. We had a total of 20 folks out and
ranged in age from 7 - 50ish. We ended the cold evening (by Southern
standards) with a group gathering at an all-you-can-eat pizza place.
We'll post the pics as soon as we get them.

BillHam - Lookin' good, man!

We had 7 riders and 4 non-riders for the parade. The photo posted by
uni-mom shows 6 of the riders. The smallest rider in the photo is my
daughter (proud papa). As always, I enjoyed the parade, especially with
5 first time parade uni riders. One of our young members had never been
in a parade before. Pretty cool to be in your first parade and to do it
on a uni!

Temp was around freezing but was comfortable for us "northerners".
Afterwards we went to Dairy Queen for ice cream, (although my wife did
get hot chocolate).

I made up business cards with info that we ride every Tuesday night,
where, and my contact info. Quite a few cards were handed out during
the parade, especially by the parade walkers who were able to talk with
the spectators who uttered remarks that showed they might be interested
in learning to ride. It'll be fun to see if we pick up a few people
from the cards.

Fun, fun, fun!

I crashed my hometown (Millington, TN) parade today. I dressed in my
best holiday attire then found a group that looked sort of like me and I
asked if I could tag along with them. Reactions from the crowd were
great as usual. I was the only unicycle rider in the parade.

What a great way to spend a pleasant, sunny Saturday afternoon.

mucRider - I never thought of "crashing" a parade and just joining in
with a group. Fun idea and a great way for a singe uni to get in on the
action easily and last minute.
