  1. Hi,

    A freelance outdoors writer that I have worked with in the past wants to
    "pitch" an article on MUni to a magazine.

    He wanted to know if any magazines like Men's Journal or Outside, etc.
    have done any stories on MUni.

    I am not aware of any, but that's why I need ya'all for help.

    Anyone know?

    Thanks!

  5. Dirt Rag did an article about muni. See 'this thread'
    (http://tinyurl.com/4mv3d).

    And there is the April 1997 article in Atlantic Monthly about George
    Peck. Unfortunately the online version of that article is no longer
    available.

  7. Magazine coverage that I've kept track of:

    Weekly World News - March 20, 2001
    Three pictures and a short article that covered some of the history and
    background of mountain unicycling. Including quotes by George Peck and
    Brett Bymaster.

    Mountain Bike - August 2002
    Picture of Kris Holm in Mexico. A short description by Kris on five
    steps to learning how to ride a unicycle.

    Mens Fitness - June/July 2004
    A good picture of Kris Holm. A good picture of Karl Thompson. A short
    article about riding at Moab and a very brief history of MUni.

    Dirt Rag - Issue 97 11/15/02
    Article submitted by David Maxfield about riding a mountain unicycle.

    Mountain Bike - April 2003
    A picture of Scott Cooper and a short story about Scott Cooper. In
    their Me And My Bike section.

    Mountain Bike - January 2002
    Kris mentioned as best freerider in their The Best. Two sentences. A
    small poor quality picture.

    National Geographic Adventure - December 2001
    Picture of Nathan and Kris on Pico de Orizaba in Mexico. Short article
    that was just one long paragraph.

    Outdoor Photographer - February 2002
    Expect The Unexpected. A small picture of Kris. An article about
    photography where the writer mentions a chance encounter with a group of
    unicyclists riding up White Mountain Peak (14,246 feet) and getting a
    totally unexpected shot and subject.

    Dirt Rag - Issue 72 - 5/15/99
    Picture of David Poznanter at the Sea Otter Classic

    Bike - July 1999
    A picture on the back page of a random unicyclist riding down a scree
    field. The shot is tilted to make it look steeper than it is.

    There have also been some newspaper articles that go in to more depth
    than the magazine articles.

    There haven't been any really good magazine articles (that I know of)
    about muni since the Atlantic Monthly article back in 97.

  8. There was 'this thread' (http://tinyurl.com/4c6a9). Looks like the
    article link has gone bad. Go to
    http://www.bicyclepaper.com/bp/Archives/archives.htm and click on Fall
    2003. That will open a pdf, the article is on page 3.
