Hey, I’ve been riding for about 6 months now and are looking for anyone from melbourne to do street and trials with.
There is a way to search for unicyclists in you city around here somewhere. I just can’t find it now. You’ll have to wait for one of the americans to wake up.
Welcome to the fora, how did you get into unicycling?
I just decided to by one for no reason other than i thorght it would be cool, About a month after i learned to ride i find out about trials and all the other kinds of riding on the net.
unicycling.org>> unicycling roster >> Australia.

i am american, and i am technically up pretty late for me.
see how that helps.
G’day,
I’m in Brisbane, but I think there are at least a few Melbourne riders who drop by here from time to time. They may see this and respond. You’ll have more luck here though - http://www.unicyclevictoria.com/

hey,
my name’s max and i am also 14. i live in box hill (melbourne’s eastern suburbs) and would love someone to ride with.
there are a group of us who ride on the last sunday of the month at the melbourne museum at 2pm. there is a bit of trials stuff and lots of open space, and we sometimes play hockey.
i have exams coming up at school, but after that we should go for a ride.
i didnt think there were any other street/trials riders in melbourne, but u just proved me wrong. sweet.
email me at max_pfeifer@yahoo.com.au
hey guys. i think met max at the unicycle meet at the museum thing. (adrian by the way, the guy who’s friends with the BC wheeler Keven). Definetly suggest going to the meet if you want to improve, meet new people etc. I go into the city just about every weekend (usually on Sunday) so i’d be happy to meet up with anyone to ride or just muck around. Email me or something
this thread is ANCIENT!!
ahahahah, but yeah, president luke is Luke from the uni-meet that was on recently, Max_pfiefer is obviously Max, and i am Tom, the other guy who was riding with luke and max!!!
but yeah i remember you!! if u manage to read this post b4 tomorrow (saturday) then come along with us, we r meeting at Flinders St. Station
at round 11:30 !!!
alright laterz mate…
ps. my msn addy is tom_brooke@hotmail.com
and lukes is president_frog@hotmail.com
i dunno if you’re going to check this before then (about 3 hours) but me and keven are meeting at Box Hill station McDonalds around about 11 and we’re going to train it in. We’ll be at Flinders around 11:45 hopefully. Yeah so just hang around for a while otherwise just be looking out for the guys with the unicycles. (Keven also bought one, just a standard bike shop one but it has like 2 inch rims)
that site hasnt been updated for years!
i just checked and it is no longer online. oh well, there wasnt much on it anyway.
sorry we missed you albino_gumby. i was on the 11:10 train from box hill and neither tom or i checked the forum this morning before we left. hope you had a good ride.
where abouts in melbourne do you live?
cheers,
Max
we were there from about 11:10 to 11:45 before we got bored. We didn’t do anything special, just found some flat concrete and mucked around for a couple of hours. I live in Chirnside Park (Near Lilydale) and Keven lives in Mooroolbark. Anytime you guys want to go for a ride just give us a ring. I think we might have to miss this months uni meet cause we’re busy. Do any of you have UniVerse 2 (or one for that matter?). I just got One Wheel Addiction which is pretty freaking cool but it still doesn’t hold nothing over Defect.
Hi,
I’m in Melbourne with work for a few weeks, but without a Uni. Is the Sunday meet at the Melbourne museum on tomorrow?
I think some of the guys from work saw you guys riding on the Southbank last Saturday
Paul
hey, yeah that would have been Max and I!!
the uni meet is on tomorrow (sunday) but Luke, Max and I wont be there but Ed and the other guys from Kilmore will be going!!
just thought i’d put this thread at the top of the list again. are you guys going riding this weekend (the 4th)?
i think we may be going for a ride this saturday, meeting at Camberwell, having a ride around, go to the skatepark and go to some trials spots!
then get on the train go somewhere else and look for shit, then get back on the train, try somewhere else… until we find a sweet spot to ride!!
we r getting sick of riding around the city, we have pretty much conquered all the shit we can find and that isnt too crazy to do, and its just gettin over-rated!
And Riverslide/Riverside skatepark is gettin waayyy to packed, me and max went there 2 weekends ago and it was incredibly busy, and we saw some guy in his near 50’s ridin a skateboard ahahah very funny coz he couldnt ride for crap and was riding a kmart deck (looked like he was in the middle of a mid-life crisis)
lol, i know what you mean about Riverside, it’s harder to get into then Adrian’s pants… Dunno if we can get to Camberwell. There’s a Camberwell station on the Mooroolbark/Belgrave to Flinders line yeah?
well yeah im pretty sure there is coz i get on at ringwood station and thats the same line as the belgrave to flinders line!!
there is like east camberwell and camberwell station we will be gettin off at normal camberwell im pretty sure
Paul Royle, were you the guy with the UDC shirt at the meet???
coz i was watching u…
yes he was
AUSTRALIA!!
Just thought I’d revive this thread. Who can tell me when the next meet is?
