Well, after my first convention, UNICON in Denmark, I stoped buying stupid things to travel again.
After researching a bit I decided to attend Wuko (EUC2009) in Cologne, Germany!
The biggest problem: It’s a 3 days convention, and I will spend a LOT in airplane tickets to go to Europe (the most expensive for me).
So I’m researching cool and cheap places to ride in Europe. For me the best places are France, Germany, Norway and Denmark I think (Opened for different places;)).
I’m planning to stay in hostels, and I need to know what places have great groups to ride flat/trials/street.
I’m planning to stay from 15 January to the end of Wuko, but If there’s a better time to stay (after or before Wuko), let me know!
The trip isn’t confirmed yet, but I need to know what places are great to calculate how much money I will need!
There are quite a lot of people riding in and around Paris. You would be more than welcome there. If I am around you could of course sleep at my place. Just not sure when I am going skiing, but it is around that time so we’d have to plan it well. Let me know.
Hey Pedro after unicon I went around Europe a bit, and a friend of mine was staying in Paris, I will let you know what hostel he stayed at because I remember he said it was really really good.
I plan to go to France in January too! And I’d love to meet some unicyclist around Lyon or Paris or anywhere at France hehe! If anyone know a group of unicyclists or someone who would like to ride with me while I stay there, please, let me know! =)
Paris is a great place and easy to get to from everywhere - has direct trains from/to Cologne, and there are nice unicyclists there.
The list of countries you have is sensible, as they’re all quite easily gettable to from Germany (except maybe Norway - I’d think that’d be a flight or a long ferry). Dunno what the weather does to street riding, if you’re cool with riding when it is cold/wet, there shouldn’t be too many problems.
Last time I stayed in hostels in Germany, they were really cheap, and very nice. Paris is a bit more expensive I’ve always found.
Então Pedro é que tipo, eu vou tá estudando lá na França… ae eu não tenho certeza se vai dar pra ir msm pra Wuko! Por isso eu queria tbem encontrar alguém em Lyon, pra andar durante os dias de semana msm… mas ñ sei de vai dar mto certo, pq lá vai ser inverno e vai tá um puta frio!! Hahaha
