Unicycling in Leicester

UnicycleJuggler said:

Hi, I'm hoping to set up a ride in leicester some time next week. I
haven't decided when yet, so if people want to suggest when they are
available then we can work around that.
I'm not sure what sort of riding people generally do around Leicester,
so I'm open to suggestions! I'd like to do some trials/street but I'm
also up for other disciplines as well.

Well, on Monday and/or Tuesday I'll be going out on a mid-distance
ride, so if there's fellow one-wheelers to meet in Leicester then that
sounds like a good place to head for. I won't be doing any
trials/street though as I'll hardly be on a suitable unicycle, but it'd
be good to meet up anyway. Let me know when/where.

Your typical british unicyclist is a little lacking in organisational
skills, shall we say. Well, in my experience we are 🙄
This is an actual snippet of conversation from a NUTS meet. (Probably)
NUTter 1 - "Shall we go for a ride then?"
NUTter 2 - "If it stops raining, when we've finished our pint,
maybe..."

What im trying to say is, with less than one weeks notice, I reckon
bugger all people will turn up. You need to give us unicyclists a bit
of time to get ourselves sorted. :p
I would love to come up to Leicester for a ride. Im well overdue a
night out up there, but im busy for every weekend for ages 🙁

Well, I ride a geared 29er, so does that answer the question? 😄

My plan would be to ride from Nottingham to Leicester (about 28 miles),
hang out for a bit, maybe ride if there's anyone else on big wheels,
and then ride home again. However, I can't do Saturday. Sun, Mon or
Tues are the only days I'll be around.

btw Ed, short notice is normally best for me. The Southend thing was
organised ages in advance, and I planned to be there, but work cropped
up only a couple of weeks before hand so I couldn't go. "How about
this weekend" normally works better for me as I know what I'm doing by
then 🙂

Well I'm working purely on short notice due to not knowing what I'm
doing next week and whether I'm working or not. I have only been riding
a couple of months so I haven't managed to go any further than 1/4 of a
mile yet! I'd love to hang out with people and have a chatter and a
mess about.
If people suggest whatever they can do/would like to do, then we'll go
from there.

Seems like a convo that would take place between Joe and Kit (something
similar happened at York Nuts) though it was raining and wet, so we did
go the pub like and good british chap would do.

I've got family in Leicester, but unfortunately next week I'll be on the
other side of the pond.
