If you are interested in teaching a workshop please send us an e-mail Vern Coffey A New England native, Vernon Coffey discovered humboldt in 2000, when he came to Humboldt State University on exchange from the University of Massachusetts. It was here in arcata that juggling took on a central role in his life (thanks to the awesome community of jugglers in Humboldt). It was also here that he learned contact juggling and poi. After returning to Massachusetts to complete his degree, He's back in Arcata where he firedances, juggles, makes tofu, parties, and finds other ways to make good use of that Bachelor of Science degree. Beyond the Butterfly: Intermediate to advanced poi -Taking the butterfly as its starting point, this workshop will explore several "opposite spin" patterns, including thread the needle and advanced variations, turning sequences, and the enigmatic butterfly weave. Clark Davis Clark has been juggling since Fall 1985. He holds a Bachelor's Degree in Environmental Resources Engineering from Humboldt State University. Clark's interest in the intimate bond between juggling and music has drawn him into a world of beating out rhythms in his juggling patterns. When he is not being dragged into a performance by his juggling partner he can often be found spending hours working on his devilstick and diabolo patterns.

A product of The Sun newspaper Search SunLink: " ALIGN="center"> New form of outdoor recreation: mountain unicycling Seabury Blair Jr. Mr. Outdoors Now - as if mountain biking weren't punishment enough - we have a new form of outdoor recreation: mountain unicycling. For those of you who don't know what a unicycle is, imagine a bicycle with its front wheel missing. You sit on a post and pedal a single wheel, without the benefit of that life-saving thing called a granny gear. If you are as accomplished at mountain biking as me - which is to say that my bike, the Great Emasculator, rides me as often as I ride it - you might find this new trend somewhat alarming. I mean, I can't manage two wheels without spending a good deal of time gouging ruts in the trail with my ANSI-approved helmet. Now I'm going to try it on one wheel? There will be twice as many ruts. In essence, I'll bet that mountain unicyclists have been practicing West Coast mountain biking once too often. They've been gouging their own ruts. Here they are: a whole herd of unicyclists, starting off up this logging road. They looked like a bunch of circus clowns escaped from the clownatorium. There were young ones, old folks, girls and boys, men and women.

California Mountain Unicycling Weekend 1998 John Foss has photos up on the official CA MUni '98 site I went. I rode. It was great. And now, the pictures! Day One - Auburn There were plenty of riders there crazier than I am. That's David Poznanter, showing his contempt for Darwinian theory. I wasn't entirely sane though, usually opting for the more difficult routes on the trail. On the first day, anyway. These humps (that I did ride over after a few tries) reminded me of the carnival game where you try to roll a ball over a hill and have it not roll over the next hill. As usual, the two-dimensional picture is less obvious than the reality, but you can figure out what the trail is doing by looking at it's left edge. Just another rocky section of trail I rode over and decided to capture for posterity. My posterior has since recovered. We often had a great view from the trail of the valley below. We eventually rode all the way down to the river. The more energetic expert riders also rode all the way up, but several of us opted to get a lift to the interesting part of the trail, near the top. This is much later, after the morning ride, after lunch, and after the true experts finished their cliff-hugging detour and rejoined the somewhat bored remainder on the practically paved Stagecoach Trail. Here we are, streaming out from our meeting point down the mountain. The end of this trail, almost at the river, was entirely loose rocks and was some of my favorite riding.

Seth and His Unicycle For a while I lived in Edinburgh, an urban unicycling nightmare of cobblestones, wind, rain, and pedestrians. While there, I mostly avoided the streets and just rode on dirt trails up and around the crags . The trail wasn't very rough, except where it's too steep and slippery, but it was close. Before and since then, in Sunnyvale, I mostly ride to and in nearby Serra Park. There's dirt, there are steps, there are big paved areas, and best of all there's an artificial river they leave dry in the winter. Mostly I rode around in that, when it's dry. During the summer I ride around on the dirt under the trees, up and down the curbs, hop up the steps, and sometimes ride down them. I've also ridden trails in various Open Space Preserves . The views are nice, but they're all a bit of a drive away. I prefer the park, since it has no annoying hills and, in the winter, has more interesting terrain. I got my first taste of rough terrain riding at the first California Mountain Unicycling weekend . I prefer a bumpy dirt trail with lots of rocks that doesn't go up and down huge hills, which is why I spend all my time in the riverbed. I had a blast at the 1998 CA MUni Weekend , and took some pictures which I have online.

BIOGRAPHY Kris was inspired to begin unicycling at age 12 after he saw a street performer playing a violin on his unicycle in Kris' hometown of Victoria, Canada. Kris thought this was very cool, since he also played the violin. After mastering this trick he started looking for other unicycling challenges, and riding trails seemed like an exciting idea. Kris then spent the next 13 years riding difficult terrain both locally and also around Western North America during rock climbing trips. It wasn’t until the summer of 1998 that Kris discovered through the internet that mountain unicycling was a real sport and had an annual competitive event called the California Mountain Unicycling weekend. After traveling to this event and winning all categories, he realized that the terrain he rode was the most difficult ever ridden on a unicycle. Kris then went on to win 7 titles at the 1999 and 2001 North American Unicycling Championships, and is the current World Unicycle Trials Champion and official world record-holder in unicycle high jump at 90 cm. Kris’s first real break into professional sport came in October 1998, when the bike-action video North Shore Extreme II featured him riding on the Vancouver North Shore, notorious for some of the most difficult mountain biking terrain in the world.

December 15, 1999 Saratoga, California Since 1955 Seven-year-old friends Trey Miller (left) and Beau Hoover are confirmed unicyclists. Photograph by Kathy De La Torre Single Minded Unicycle riders are passionate about going places one wheel at a time By Leigh Ann Maze The unicycle is no longer just for circus performers and jugglers. A small but growing number of unicyclists, including a handful of local residents, are pedaling unicycling away from its birthplace in circus tents and out into the wild. Trey Miller, 7, who lives part-time with his father in Saratoga, often can be seen practicing on his unicycle at the Saratoga High School track during his sister's cheerleading practice. When he first began, Trey would measure the progress he could make without falling first in inches, then feet, and finally laps. "I can go around three times without stopping," Trey says. Now, Trey often rides his unicycle to Daves Avenue School in the mornings alongside his best friend, Beau Hoover, and Beau's father, Nathan Hoover of Los Gatos. Although Nathan Hoover occasionally rides to school with the kids and then continues on his seven-mile commute to work as a software engineer, his true passion is mountain unicyclingor MUni, as it is called by aficionados of the emerging sport. MUni riders travel the same steep, treacherous trails as mountain bikers, except on one knobby tire instead of two, usually without brakes and never with gears.

One-wheeled wonders are growing in numbers -!-!- By Cristina Cardoze -!-!- 2002-04-10 -!-!- Unicycling the sport of riding a single wheel with pedals and a seat is gaining popularity all over the world. There are about a million unicyclists in the United States alone. Contrary to popular perceptions, they are not all juggling circus clowns. Most unicyclists are ordinary people who love the challenge of balancing on one wheel. -!-!- No brakes. No gears. No handlebars. "No problem," says John Foss, President of the International Unicycling Federation and three-time world champion unicyclist. "Unicycling is not as dangerous as it looks," he said. "Anyone can learn." Unicycling the sport of riding a single wheel with pedals and a seat is gaining popularity all over the world. According to Foss, the Internet's ability to disseminate information about the sport and the rise of innovative disciplines like mountain unicycling, have increased curiosity and awareness. John Drummond, who started the first and only online unicycle department store three years ago, says that most of his sales are to first-time buyers. "New unicyclists are our bread and butter," said Drummond, whose company's revenues topped $700,000 last year. Drummond estimates that there are about a million unicyclists in the United States, and they are not all juggling circus clowns. Most unicyclists are ordinary people who love the challenge of balancing on one wheel. They unicycle to stay in shape, socialize, play games, run errands, walk their dogs and commute to work. And their numbers are growing. Joe Merrill, 38, and David Stone, 35, founded Unatics of New York, the first unicycling club in New York City, about a year ago. The club started with 15 members and has since ballooned to 110 men and women, ranging 5 five to 50 years of age. "There are times when we get 10 new members a week," Merrill said. Unatics of New York meets twice a month by a band shell in Central Park. Members practice skills and ride around the bike paths. Sometimes they try different types of unicycles, including one that spins in the middle, one that has a 46-inch wheel (nicknamed Godzilla) and a few 6-foot-high "giraffes." "It's quite a scene to see 30 unicyclists riding around Central Park," Merrill said. The scene is good for recruiting. "There's always someone that says 'I want to learn to do that,'" Merrill added. But learning to ride a unicycle is much harder than mastering a traditional two-wheeler. It takes about two weeks of practice to learn to ride and a few more weeks to do turns and basic tricks. Both Foss and Merrill say the degree of difficulty works against the sport ever gaining mass appeal. "Most people will look at a unicyclist and say, 'I could never do that,' Merrill said, "but there's a small group of people that say, 'that's possible, and if he can do it, so can I." Merrill learned to ride a unicycle when he was growing up in Maine. His grandfather saw him trying to balance on a single tricycle wheel and got him a unicycle. Merrill fell in love with it. He rode his unicycle through high school and college but stopped when he moved to New York to become a computer networking professional. Then he met David Stone at their daughters' gymnastics class. Stone was not easy to miss. He rode his unicycle to the gym with his son in a stroller on one side and his daughter on a skateboard-like contraption in the back. "I immediately fell in love with it again," Merrill said. "I said to myself, 'this is what I've been missing all this years.'" According to Merrill, unicycling is great exercise because you can never stop pedaling. It's fun, extremely challenging and it's something most people can't do. Merrill and Stone started unicycling together on a regular basis and later formed Unatics of NY. Since then, Merrill's love of the sport has escalated. He practices at least 90 minutes a day, rides his unicycle to work on sunny mornings and has picked up mountain unicycling, the newest fad in the unicycling world. Mountain unicycling combines elements of mountain biking and downhill skiing. "You get the same level of excitement as in downhill skiing, but it's not as dangerous," Merrill said. On a unicycle, you can go only as fast as you can pedal (about 8 miles an hour), you can't coast, and if you lose your balance, all you have to do is jump off. Mountain unicycling is the trend now, but the sport's evolution is continuing. There are unicycle aficionados all over the world who think there's no limit to the things that can be done on one wheel. Clubs in Minnesota, Michigan and Quebec play unicycle basketball. A club in New Orleans focuses on unicycle polo. Unicycle hockey is popular in California and abroad. Australia, China, Denmark, Great Britain, Switzerland and New Zealand have active unicycle hockey teams. Germany has a full-blown unicycle hockey league. And a group of people in England use unicycles instead of flying broomsticks to play Quidditch, the famous Harry Potter sport. The World Unicycling Championships will be held in Seattle this summer. According to Foss, about 600 unicyclists are expected to attend. The next step is to make unicycling into an Olympic sport. "After all," said Merrill, "it's definitely more fun than curling." -!-!- Joe Merrill, left, and David Stone founded Unatics of New York, New York City's first unicycle club, a year ago. -!-!- Alison Devine

This is the Home Page of the Suspension MUni MUni - Mountain Unicycling If you are a Unicyclist and you haven't taken your uni off-road, grab a knobby tire and and hit the trails. Mountain Unicycling is a challenging and rewarding sport, it requires quite a bit of practice before you feel comfortable on the trails, but once you get the hang of it you will not want to stop. I learned how to ride on the standard uncomfortable steel unicycle just like most everyone else did. After a while of constant soreness in the places you don't want to be sore, I set out to eliminate uncomfortable riding. I started out with a design for a suspension seatpost that would fit the unicycle, but soon scrapped that idea and went all the way with a suspension fork. I took a standard Rock Shox suspension fork and had it fit to a Cycle Pro 24" Uni. On this Uni I chose to use a bike seat instead of the standard unicycle seat, I found it to be more comfortable, but I wasn't able to hold on to it very well. I later had a 26" wheel built from a Miyata hub and upgraded to 170mm alluminum cranks with BMX platform pedals and also added a Miyata unicycle seat that I filled with gel. This Unicycle weighs in at 12lbs. Another option for a simple suspension system would be using a mountain bike style suspension seatpost, such as a USE, but the smallest size availabe is around 25.4mm and the most common unicycle seatpost is approx 22mm 7/8".

document.write(Banner("area=slt.local.articles.position0/adsize=banner1",468,60)) Riding a Unicycle Is a Challenge Even More So on Slickrock Trail Sunday , March 31, 2002 With his canine company tagging along, Boyd Stoitzfus maneuvers his unicycle over the Slickrock Bike Trail during the 2002 Moab Mountain Unicycle Festival over the Easter weekend. (Lisa Church) BY LISA CHURCH SPECIAL TO THE TRIBUNE MOAB As dozens of monster four-wheel drive vehicles roared past on the main road to the Sand Flats Recreation Area, Rolf Thompson and nine other unicyclists from Utah and Idaho pedaled and hopped their one-wheel wonders up Moab's world famous Slickrock Bike Trail. Mountain bikers and bystanders stopped to stare. Thompson laughed. "You've got to have a sense of humor. I've been told I'm missing a wheel. Or riding a few gears short," Thompson said. "I've heard all the jokes. After a while, you get used to people gawking." The Provo engineer who was a unicyclist as a child says he first saw a mountain unicycle about four years ago. "The minute I rode one I was hooked. It was just amazing." In 1999, he founded the Moab Mountain Unicycling Festival MUni and put out the word over several unicycling Internet sites to draw other unicyclists to Moab. The free festival has never drawn large crowds 12 riders attended last year and that suits Thompson just fine. "The whole point of mountain unicycling is intrigue. It's a puzzle to figure out how or if you can ride a particular place. And the Slickrock Trail is the best puzzle of all."
