Just going for my usual daily practice ride yesterday… down along
the bike path by the beach here in Vancouver… passed three people
who were smiling broadly and looking at me on the uni… this is a
common occurance for me on the uni so I smiled back and said ‘hi’…
whereupon they said, ‘going to UNICON’?
Wow, I staggered to a halt (which is normal for me after only riding a
uni for three weeks now) and spun around to discover these fine folks
were from Purto Rico: Alberto (unicycle basketball team member - hope
I got his name right), his father and Wendy his mother. It was so
great to meet them and have a chat. Alberto blew me away with the few
minutes he spent on my Sem XL; “the seat is too low for you probably”,
I warned him, but no matter, he really didn’t need it as he did
amazing tricks completely without sitting on the seat at all.
The threesome were visiting the sights in Vancouver before heading
down to UNICON next week. I wish them a great time and good
basketball results!
Cheers,
Erin
