“When I met my husband John I never realized how sexy the world of unicycling was. And as John told me on our first date, unicycling is a chick magnet as I’m sure you will all agree. In my quest to meet as many unicyclists as possible to compare to John, I’ve attended four Unicons and nine USA conventions, and even had unicycles riding around at my wedding. And I have yet to be disappointed! Many say that my ability to support others is one of my greatest strengths. This will be put to the ultimate test as I support three middle-aged men to ease their aching bones (butts?) and to soothe their sagging joints. But I know I am up to the challenge as I have practiced diligently with two aging bulldogs and a hyperactive puppy. These three should be a piece of cake by comparison. I’m currently working on my support kit, which so far includes glucosamine, Ben Gay, laxatives, and Bag Balm.”
Team Centurions, named for the team’s cumulative years of unicycling, was John Foss, CA; David Stone, NY; and Dave White, OH. Average age: 46 years and 3 months. Jacquie was well prepared. The Centurions finished 10th in a field of 35 teams, 4 hours, 9 minutes and 47 seconds out of first place.
