Muni Ride on Saturday – SFU

A few of us will be riding down SFU on Saturday at 11am. We usually meet at the bottom of Nicole’s Trail and shuttle up. Give us a shout if you’re planning on coming along.

Offroad ride at Simon Fraser – Saturday March 8th @ 11am

Spring is peaking just around the corner and we are super keen to start kicking it off with some mountain rides. With that in mind tomorrow morning we will be hitting SFU to ride down Nicole’s Trail.

Meet us at the bus loop at 11am, or send an email to info@vanuni.com to make sure you catch us (include your cell number!).

Cool and breezy with a chance of Unicycle Hockey

Hey Folks,

Last week we had a fun filled 3 on 4 first period with the one and only Jonathan Neill showing us how a slap shot is meant to be done. A couple of us sadly dropped out a tad early due to colds and other obligations, but a mean 2 on 3 game was played by those left.

Tomorrow we will be at it again, playing unicycle hockey underneath the Cambie St. bridge at 6:30pm. We will have an extra unicycle for anyone who wonders by, and as usual we will enthusiastically greet any newcomers.

So come down, say hi, and play!

Who’s in?

February got you down?

If you are feeling a bit under the weather then you should pull up your socks and come play unicycle hockey with us!

We start at 6:30pm underneath the Cambie Bridge, downtown side, tonight (February 20th).

Hope  to see you out there!

Olympics!? Pffft… Let’s play Unicycle Hockey!

Whelp, last weekend was bitterly cold (for Vancouver), and this week looks like it’ll be a wet one. But true to our word we will be out there playing hockey.

Actually when it rains it usually guarantees us a full court, so really you should all be trying to make your way down under the Cambie Bridge this Thursday, February 13th, for some unicycle mayhem.

Last week both Justin and Cyrus braved the cold to hone their unicycle skills. I’m a bit worried about what’ll happen if we put them on the same team…

As always this is a beginner friendly event, I’ll bring along a spare unicycle and sticks (no cart this week), and we are more than happy to give lessons and pointers, so come down and say hello!

Happy riding,
Tynan

Thur Uni Hockey, almost like the real thing

Hey guys, it’s cold enough these evenings to feel like we’re unicycling on ice out there, maybe time to try with a real puck rather than a tennis ball?!

Anyways, game is on tomorrow at 6:30pm as usual. I’ll have the cargo trike of spare unicycles if there are newbies without gear wanting to a stab, and who knows if you’re lucky it may double up as an icecream delivery truck during half time.  Thanks for the Tip Julien.

-Justin

See you all tomorrow.
