South Somerset! Easily close enough to the proper south west for a day out.

Plans are going well.
Here is the first public announcement

South West Uni meet , Saturday 28th Feb 2004 12noon-5pm
Priory High School sports hall
just off the Topsham road, Exeter.
Easily accessible by car or public transport.

Unicycle Hockey, Basket ball,fun games, workshops and UUU level testing.

Cost
5 pound for riders
1 pound for non rider parents etc
Free tea/ coffee/ squash/ car parking.

You need to surport this one folks. These events cost quite a bit to
hold in a good hall, if
there is enough money after paying the costs this time we can look at
doing it again and maybe making South West uni meets a regular thing.

Volunteers needed to help out with bits and pieces on the day.
More info will go onto a web site in the near future.

Hope to see lots of you there.
Sarah

Thanks sarah, do you have a uni i could use for indoors as you know I only have my trials as I really want to play hockey as I did hockey for a G.C.S.E and loved it not uni hock though also i would like to try my newer skills on a skinny tyre.even if you only had an old one I would be very greatfull. I will help with stuff if you want eg if phil and I could for a scouting ride of trials spots or something so we don't spent half the day looking for them on the meet.I have done a little already when I have been to Exeter to get my braces removed YAY! I have seen some very nice dry fountains and some benches on the high street with wall(raised plant beds) to bench gaps.I hope you can make it tree as it would be cool to meet knew unicyclists and maybe show you how to diabolo if you can teach me to juggle i have never been able to do this and would be so happy if you showed me.

If you need a Giraffe i would think the butchers would be glad to bring theirs.I am sad to tell you that nick as far as i know has Quit unicycling as he has not been out with us in ages.
i have cracked ww and 1ft ww. and am starting tyre hops and unispins.

Yes, I think so. By unicycle from Exeter St Davids its about 2.5 miles of
riverside cycle path cycling, traffic free and pretty easy to
navigate. I'll have to remember to include cycle path directions on the
web page, good idea TreeP. By Bus... from St Davids catch a bus to the
city centre then change onto another bus. From Exeter Central station or
the Bus/ Coach station its just a short walk and then one bus. I'll look
up the Bus names and things.
