They are including a 100m Unicycle Sprint. They have some basic rules
available now.

I will contact the organisers and suggest they contact the IUF for some rules,
ideas and help, but it sounds, from their propaganda, as though they are not too
interested in established rules!

Hi Julian

   I have emailed twice for more info and suggesting they could consider uni
   hockey as a sport but haven't heard back. I heard that one of the
   organisers is a guy who recently resigned as the head of Wellingtons (now
   abandoned) bid for the comonwealth games which may explain why it's been
   a bit quiet. Please let me know if you get any response. We are real keen
   to see unicyclists comeing to NZ and this may all the reason that some of
   you need :) If it goes ahead maybe we will run our Unicycle Nationals in
   Christchurch at the same time.
