Yunnanuni August 2011

Happy New Year! Hope you saw in 2011 with some unicycling action already. If not, why not join us for a unicycle tour in an exotic location this year?

Our next Adventure Unicyclist tour will be through the mountains of Tibet in South-West China. We will be riding from Shangri-La, through various mountain passes to the famous Tiger-Leaping-Gorge above the Yangzi River. It will have some spectacular scenery and should get those unicycle legs working hard!

Let us know if you want to come on tour, we have 20 places available.

Monguni Video

Here is a video produced by Jason of Grasshopper Adventures showing the highlights of the Monguni Unicycle Tour:

Mountain-unicycling South Island, New Zealand

Mark Lavis from Canberra does a unicycling road trip of the South Island, New Zealand after UNICON XV (The 15th Unicycle World Championships and Convention) held in Wellington earlier this year.

It’s a long video but shows some amazing scenery and good MUni action.

3 Oceans Unicycle Tour

Yes, that crazy man who unicycled across India is at it again.  Sid Rajan is riding across Australia as part of his honours thesis.  Having just recently ridden across Tasmania as part of the Tasmania Unicycle Tour, Sid will be taking on the rest of Australia in a test of endurance.

“The aim of this research project is to arrive at a deeper understanding of the embodied experience of long distance cycle touring in relation to the space-time dimension of the experience.”

Sounds like an incredibly painful experiment to me! The tour will take place in June-July 2009.  Folllow his journey here: 3 Oceans Unicycle Tour Website

Good luck Sid!

Update from Induni

The tour is well and truly in the Himalayas, with big mountains, long descents, and kids chasing and waving to us wherever we go.  We’ve gone from the steamy lowlands to the tea plantations and leg numbing climbs as we ascended to over 2000m elevation. Today is a rest day in Kalimpong before heading into Sikkim state tomorrow.

Here a a few photos from the trip so far:
