Matt Downing made a final 135km ride into Gibraltar today, after over 3000km in the saddle:
“I wake up early with the strange feeling knowing the trip would be over before I’m next asleep. I say goodbye to the others who are awake at the Hostel and head off by the sea. The roads then become absolutely crazy so I take to the fields climbing fences over and under, and am covered in dirt.”

Congratulations Matt!
Matt Downing takes to the roads of Paris and Spain on one wheel to raise money for charity.
“Starting in Calais and ending in Gibraltar he will traverse the entire trip on a Unicycle. That’s roughly 2000 miles! He expects to meet many people along the way and ask them nicely to contribute to his cause – raising money for Cancer research UK.”

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.
