Not a unicyclist, but a trials bicyclist named Jeremy Van Schoonhoven is competing for your vote on AGT tonight! He just performed, and if you missed it, his act was amazing.
This is not an ad, I am just trying to support a fellow rider. Voting will be between 10:30 and 11:00pm tonight on NBC. If you do not already have a favorite, please vote! He could use your help to follow his dream!
Thanks!
I’ve seen his performances and he’s been very gutsy. He definitely knows how to perform, in a raw sort of way (perfect for his type of act). In the end, I doubt he will be chosen to do an hour-long show in Vegas, but he has shown that it’s possible for a bicycle (or unicycle) act to go really far in this contest!
The second-closest cyclist was Johnny Lonestar in season one. He made it into the top five or something. But he did this by not riding a unicycle. He’s a trick roper, gun spinner and juggling bartender. But he used to be a member of the Long Island Unicycle club, and a very good Unicycle Sumo player!
They also had some one who road a 6’ giraffe. I think he’s gone though. oh well.
