/me has an idea for a something-or-other like the unicyclist roster where you don’t have to look through a massive list to find anyone near you…

Hmmm…

I think Roger at Unicycle.uk.com does a mailing list. I vaguely recall enlisting on it, but I don’t recall receiving anything from it!

There are plenty of UK unicyclists out there. They just live miles apart.

Try fishing in the UK section of the unicycle roster. Be careful before writing to people - check the age of the person you are writing to before making any suggestion you might like to meet them. A lot are minors and before I realised the potential for misunderstanding, I got one very frosty response!

As for Essex, I can be found at Thaxted once a year with the Morris dancers, the first weekend after the late May bank holiday. I usually use a uni in the show on the Saturday evening.

There is a mailing list.

I used to be on it.

The email I was using became defunct.

How do I get back on it ?

Can I read the messages in some sort of archive ?

More reminders to come.

Maybe I’ll be able to send some electronic flyers via the uk-unicyclists mailing list - eventually !

Re: Uk Unicyclists

There is a UK group, the subscribe link is
uk_unicyclists-subscribe@egroups.com according to our FAQ, although it was
written before Yahoo took over the groups and messed them up. I believe it
still works because they advertise the unsubscribe as:
uk_unicyclists-unsubscribe@egroups.com
It is still active because I do get mails from it every now and again,
definitely a good place to ask people for rides.
Unicycle.com in the UK also have a mailing list that goes out what I can
write the news letter (about every couple of months if you are lucky) it
just tells of what events are coming up and any product news… talking of
which COME TO MOSTYN IT IS A GOOD CONVENTION! if you want to join our
mailing list you can register at

Re: Uk Unicyclists

By the way, anyone out there interested in coming down to London (UK) for a
bit of a ride.

I’m thinking late september, early october because that’d hopefully mean
okay weather and not too many tourists sitting on things you want to ride
on.

There’s lots of nice city riding going, loads of trials stuff, good riding
down by the river, nice parks and stuff.

Anyone was feeling really adventurous could make a weekend of it and either
do another ride up town, there’s lots to do, or head out to the south downs
which despite being down south are actually pretty good. I have somewhat
limited space for anyone who wanted to stay over (3 or 4 people absolutely
maximum), but might be able to blag a bit more floor space with friends who
live near me (in Balham - south london).

As several people have mentioned, yes there is a mailing list,
of which I’m the administrator. You can subscribe by sending
a blank email to:

uk_unicyclists-subscribe@yahoogroups.com

There is an archive of past messages, go to:

I think you need to be a member of the group, and set up
a yahoo groups ID and password to access that page though.

Leo: I’ve checked and you are no longer on the list, just
send an email as above from your new address.

If anyone has any problems with the list you can contact me
by removing ‘DoesntLikeSpam’ from my email address.

BTW, if you are in the UK you might like to join the Union
of UK Unicyclists (UUU). Details at:

Hope this helps,
