Just wanted to inform you all that Connie has left MN and moved to the UK. The Twin Cities Unicycle Club will miss her but hopefully she can imitate our club over there and make another great world champion club! We have a new president now and I’m sure things will be different cause she did so much for our club. You’ll probably be seeing some level 10 riders in the UK in the near future! I know she’s been one the most postive and biggest role models in my life so far. I believe she went over there for two reasons; to go back to school to get her masters, and to be with some unicyclist named Roger! At least now we all have a good excuse to go over to the UK to visit her…
Connie, hope you don’t mind that I started this thread but I thought people should know that you’re not hanging around MN anymore.
I think there aren’t any regular unicycling clubs in London other than lunis, but it isn’t that hard to get a good bunch of riders together if you can be bothered to organise to meet up. That’s what I always used to do.
Lunis are worth going along to, even if only to try out unicycle hockey. you may get hocked if you don;t play already. There is/was a youth circus group in Hammersmith, London, called “Alberts” AFAIK who included some unicye stuff, more on the freestyle/preforming side of things. keep an eye on the forum for news of London meets, they are informal get togethers to ride in central London mostly.
Link to Alberts http://www.albertandfriendsinstantcircus.co.uk/. I think you have to leave at 18, or become an instructor (this was the case a few years back). We should tell them that Lunis now meet 5minutes down the road, I keep forgetting to contact them.
Keg, Bruce. Bruce, Keg. You guys should hook up…perhaps for some muni in Swinley Forest. Keith, Bruce is one of our Seattle area gang now displaced to the UK. Bruce, Keith is one of the UK group that took such good care of me my last trip over, and hosted me to a day of riding in the Forest (and lent me their spare uni to do it). Good riders, good guys.
