BBC Does not think Unicycling is a Sport

Such outrages shall not remain unanswered. Please get onto the Question of
Sport web site at http://www.bbc.co.uk/questionofsport/ an send them an
indignant message.

Here’s the form on the BBC site to send a message to Question of Sport:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/feedback/?mailto=question.of.sport@bbc.co.uk

It took many tries to figure out how to provide feedback to them. They seem to
make it quite complex, as if they don’t want feedback.

Here’s my reply: "On tonight’s show, Steven Hendry was asked for the name of a
sport beginning with U.

He replied, “Unicycling”, but unfortunately whoever set the questions didn’t
agree and no points were forthcoming.

Let me assure you that unicycling is indeed a sport, with both international and
regional competitions that range from track, freestyle, trials, and Mountain
Unicycling events.

Please check out the newsgroup rec.sport.unicycling if you need more assistance
with your research. Or better yet use the internet to check your answers."

Don.
