a couple of members of johannesburgs’ “balls up” juggling club got so bitten by the uni bug that we decided to (half jokingly and after a beer or two (-. ) start an organisation called “The Gauteng Unicyling Society” GUS for short (gus@unicyclist.com)
we r trying to get hold of as many one wheel bandits in the gauteng region as we can
we meet on thursday nights at the roosevelt park community centre and occasionally at emmarentia dam for some juggling and uni’ing
at emmarentia u can also do some off-roadish kinda stuff
drop me a line if u’d care to join us sometime
use the gus e-mail addy
good to c my posting attracted 18 views
sadly, no replies
ppl just curious about south african uni’ing and not a single south african unicyclist on this site ever?
i’m not going to let up
i know they must be out there because the bike shops all tell me about how many uni’s they’ve sold since ‘that’ episode of 'ripley’s believe it or not ’ was flighted on sa tv
we r leaving fliers in the bike shops offering to help the new uni owner learn to ride
hopefully we’ll get some responses that way
if anyone has any contact with other south african uni’ists, please get them in touch with me?
as life twists and turns… i’ll probably find myself in london by the 1st of june
i will leave GUS in good hands and hope that they’ll get the website off the ground
good to hear from durban!
hope to hear of more unicyling societies springing up around south africa
we might even get some decent uni’s imported into this country
