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.

Barcelona to Montpellier on one wheel

Toni Penya is embarking on a 430km unicycle ride from Barcelona to Montpellier starting next week.

“Survive, have fun, meet people and expend as less as possible trying to survive out of the kindness of people in the road.”

Follow his adventures as he rides from the 9th-18th July:

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:

Induni 2009, The India Unicycle Tour

As many of you know, the next Adventure Unicyclist tour is in North Eastern India next year.  We are still taking registrations for Induni, but it closes on 1 Jan 2009, and we have a maximum limit of 24 riders.

If you are interested in coming, please get in touch with us now and I’ll give you more information about the tour.  More information and also rider profiles and unicycles are up on: www.induni.adventureunicyclist.com

Here is what Grasshopper Master, our tour leader has to say about Induni:

“Our tour takes us to the north east of India to a fantastically diverse region that
borders Bangladesh, Bhutan, Nepal and China, each of them never more than 100
miles away. This diversity is reflected in both the landscape, which ranges from the
steaming plains near Bangladesh, to the world’s 3rd highest mountain,
Kanchenjunga, but it is also evident in the people and religions we’ll see. Bengali tea
pickers, Bhutanese religious sculptors, Nepali corn vendors and Tibetan prayer flags
are all to be found at this confluence of cultures.
All this contrast makes for plenty of legwork, and starting in the plains, we’ll work our
way up through to the foothills until we’re close enough to the snow-capped peaks of
Sikkim that it’ll feel like we can just reach out and touch them. ”

Hope to see you in India next year!
