Hi,
I have just got myself a 24" UNI and was wondering if there are any riders
in the Basildon, Essex area of the UK to help me learn to ride.
If not then I will have to try on my own and most proberly sustain some
major trauma due to me wiping out on to the concrete area of the garages
where I store the cycle.
Reply to my e mail or leave a message here.
thank you for helping the new boy.

Have you found the roster of unicyclists?
http://www.unicycling.org/roster/index.php?country=uk
There’s at least one guy from Essex on there.
(Having said that, I’ve always thought this roster would be much more
useful if it included a “Last Time Updated” field, so you could tell
which entries are years out of of date.)

Good luck.
You are not the only one with the midlife crisis. I am 40 and have just
started.

Nick,
Welcome to the club. Although at 33 I think you’re just going through a
pre-midlife crisis. I’m with Alan (or is it Rob? hmm) and several others
that have recently taken up uni as full fledged adults. We can all be
geezers someday. I started in June an will turn 43 this year.

Can’t help you with finding someone local, but I can point you towards
other unicyclists in the UK.
Check out http://www.unicycle.org.uk/ for the Union of UK Unicyclists (UUU),
a club for unicyclists in the UK. It costs £2 to join, and there is some
useful free information on the website.
Also, there is an email group for unicyclists in the UK. Go to
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/uk_unicyclists/ for details or send an email
to uk_unicyclists-subscribe@yahoogroups.com to join. There’s not much
traffic on the list, but if you post a request there you might find someone
local to you.
Hope that helps,
(remove doesn’t like spam from my email to reply)
