  1. Hey - I'm sure this isn't new, but I was inspired by some things
    PatMoore said in the old farts thread.

    WHAT KIND OF MULTI-SPORT DAYS HAVE YOU HAD?

    Bonus points (*) awarded if two or more sports were contiguous, that is
    one after the other somehow. One I did recently was a 10 mile 36er
    ride to play some ultimate.

    Other combo-days I've been fortunate enough to have done:
    ski/golf , ski/ultimate, rockclimb/ski, ski/bike*, run/bike*,
    bike/canoe*, rollerblade/canoe*, run/bike/ultimate*.

    An easy one I haven't gotten around to is uni/canoe.
    Park car and remove uni and canoe
    Put canoe in water body
    Put uni in boat
    Paddle to someplace x miles away near a road
    Uni (or Muni) back x miles to car
    Drive to and retrieve canoe

  2. My life goal is to waterski and snowski in the same day.

    I snowskied and unicycled yesterday, though. First ski day of the
    season, at Crystal mountain, with semi-bluebird skies (as in the
    troposphere, not the sticks of fun I rode on). It was stellar, and I
    was able to hit up some diamonds with style and grace on my first day
    of the season! Felt purdy good, I must say, despite the runny nose
    cold that I have.

  3. I think I just heard Steve say, "I ment to post that in JC". 🙂

    I've gone hiking and then rode unicycles. That's about as multi-sporty
    as I get.

  5. Dwight Brooks and I used to do what we called the "trifecta." We'd go
    to Malibu State Park or Point Mugu and climb in the morning, then swing
    by "Big Rock" (a good surfing join along the Malibu Coast) and bodysurf
    and surf kayak, then go to Golds Gym and lift weights and skip rope.

    Last year a bunch of SB guys rode of the big Muni trials then rode in a
    parade in the afternoon. I almost fell asleep driving home to LA.

  7. At the beginning of the school year, I rode my bike 15 miles over hills
    with my 24" Quax and 2 liters of water on my back to go muniing. After
    that I was wiped, though, so I had to get a ride home *sigh*.

  9. Well, I work as an instructor at a local ski lodge. We were having a
    snow school party for the end of the year and we took the lift up at
    night and they shut off the lights. Then we broke out the flares on the
    end of poles and skiied down in formation. It was cool.

    But then I got out the unicycle and tried to do some downhill snow
    unicycling. It was when I first got my 24, so I wasn't that great. This
    year I want to do some crazy dowhill snowuni.

    In Toronto I did freestyle, uni basketball, trials, eating, flaming
    puck unicycle hockey (only in Canada), then bowling.

  12. I just about always come home and unicycle after a full day of skiing.
    (snow skiing of course) I just can't keep away from my unicycle, even
    when my legs are jelly from skiing all day.

  14. Back before I could unicycle me and my dad would do many multi sport
    days, boy, we would do everything from 11-9, those were his visitation
    hours, we would bowl, and play football and soccer and lacrosse. The
    most we ever did was five in one day, but one or two might have only
    been for like 20 minutes.

  15. It's what is working at the time or conveinant.
    My friend has a 4 man outrigger canoe and he lives close to a
    skatepark. He lives far away on the other side of the island (40 mins).

    (1)I hit the skatepark at 7am and play in the bowls. (2)Ready to paddle
    at 8am after my friend drops his kids off at school. It's a 20min
    paddle one way in the canoe to the surf spot.(3) The surf spot is over
    a mile off shore but it's not very crowded. We anchor the canoe and
    surf for couple hours.
    Then home for lunch. (4) Afternoon could be kitesurf or MUni
    depending on the weather. Or the gym as last resort. Hate gym

    You just need to figure out how to transport the canoe on the Uni,
    maybe get one of those wheelsets that strap onto one end and then pull
    the canoe back to your car. That or you coudl balance it over your
    head.

  19. I skied and played golf on Saturday (and snowboarded on Sunday) but my
    efforts pale in comparison to a friend of mine. She's 67 and an avid
    ski racer. About six weeks ago, she and I played golf (walking 18
    holes). I went home to veg out. She went home to weed her garden,
    then biked 15 miles and -then -went kayaking! She was on the course
    again the next morning at 7 am.

  20. I've had lots of days that involved uni, running/hiking, and some
    cycling.

    Steveyo, for your uni/canoe adventure, may I humbly suggest something
    along the Raquette River? OOH! Even better- put in at Tupper Lake near
    town, paddle the length of the lake, have a swim by the nice stone
    bridge, then ride back in time for brunch at the Lumberjack, if it
    still exists there...
