You could just collect some of the extra wood (2"x4"s, 4"x4"s, pallets, plywood, other useful-looking junk) from construction sites and nail it together to make skinnies, inclines, steps, ramps, or whatever else you think would make a decent trials obstacle.
You can go behind most plazas/malls/stores and find a bunch of pallets - the only problem is, sometimes the stores have to pay a deposit for the pallets, so you should probably ask them first.

As well as all the ones already suggested, I suggest you have a go at designing some yourself…it’s half the fun! 
Hopefully www.unicycl.2ya.com will be up and running again soon.
Good luck,

Indeed I do, sorry.
i have a bunch of pallets, some 2x4s, a coupel spools and a junk car laying around in what i think is a semi-difficult configuration. nothing’s nailed together and everything can be rearranged in a matter of minutes. just get as many materials as you can, and put stuff together, don’t worry too much about measurements and what not.
I bought some 8’ lawn timbers from Home Depot and a couple of 2x4s. The lawn timbers are about $3.50 each. I cut the 2x4 into 18" strips to use for braces - one on each end. (I already had some deck screws.) The braces raise the lawn timbers off the ground a couple of inches, and provide some much needed stability. I can move them around the driveway and yard in any configuration. I have eight 8’ lengths, so it’s pretty flexible.
Sounds like a very fun project! Put pics up when you’re done.
I’ve got a whole lot of stuff that I’ll take pictures of and show ya later on…

It went over the limit for bandwidth or transfers or whatever it was. It will hopefully be restored on the 8th.
