  1. Wow thats quite the write up, it looked like alot of fun. Certainly
    impressive that you did it without knowing anything about the equipment
    you were going to be using too.

  3. Hey that all sounds very good for me 🙂
    We fight hard to bring the 24"KH to Matej before the race starts.
    Some words to the sponsoring of Matej: He is a part of "*team
    unicycle.tv*". This team is powerd by 'unicycle.tv'
    (http://www.unicycle.tv) and 'monocikl.com' (http://www.monocikl.com)
    (Qu-ax and KH Croatia) and becomes also an official part of the
    "grassroots teams" of 'KH' (http://www.krisholm.com). All riders of the
    team ride on 'KH' (http://www.krisholm.com) and 'QU-AX'
    (http://www.qu-ax.com) unicycles
    There will be more info about *team unicycle.tv *soon here in the
    forum.

    We (the sponsors) would like to say thanks to Matej that he do the race
    even if he only could pick up the Uni a half day before it starts.

    Congratulation to your successful ride, even if it wasn't an official
    part of the race. We will provide you a set of breaks soon 🙂

  4. Wow! Congratulations - that looks like a fun course. That's great that
    you made the news too. I looked it up on the map and the race was
    somewhat close to where we'll be riding next June on our way from
    Ljubljana to Zadar.

    I assume unicycles are rare in Croatia? I read a recent post about
    going unicycling in Zagreb and the guys said they met "the only
    unicyclist in Croatia" or something like that.

    Anyway, thanks for posting!

  6. I figured it was you. I am from California and am planning a unicycle
    tour that will start in Ljubljana. We are working on the website now
    and will announce it here soon when it's ready. We have the tour
    members already (11 unicyclists, 2 bike support, 1 car support). We're
    still working on route details right now but the plan is to cross from
    Zadar to Ancona, Italy. Basically the tour is modelled after these:

    'Alps Tour 2005' (http://aut.unitours.org/)
    'Norway 2003' (http://www.unitours.org/tours/NUT/)
    'Europe 2001' (http://www.unitours.org/tours/EUT/index.html)

    and others.

    That would be great if we could meet next summer!

  8. Sounds great to make a tour through Croatia. For sure, Matej can give
    you some very useful tips. Maybe I'm also in Croatia next summer (I'm
    there several times of the year 🙂 ) and I would also love to meet you
    while your trip. When you plan your route, take care that you don't
    cross the Croatian /Slovenian border so much. I hate to cross it, its
    mostly a big trouble. Slovenian like to protect the European community
    to hard 🙂
    Croatia is still outside and maybe it's better as it is for them.
    How ever, it's great riding there and great people. It's the favorite
    place in the world for me and I see a lot nice places while the last 30
    years I think.
