It was GREAT to see so many unicyclists brave the cold and stormy Winter weather forecast and arrive at the Chocolate Mill meeting point for the second Monthly MUni ride. (more…)

I met up with Eric the Red and we headed out on our 29’ers to ride the Browns Gully section of the Great Dividing Trail. The return of cold Winter weather dampened our enthusiasm initially, but it turned out to be a great day for riding. (more…)

A mysterious whip cracking, juggling, 8 foot giraffe riding Frenchman has stolen the heart of my KH 29’er. (more…)

The day of the first Wombat Forest Monthly MUni finally arrived, and amazingly after more than a week of cold drizzly weather the sun came out. Blue skies, fresh clean air — an awesome day for Mountain Unicycling. (more…)

The new KH 47mm Freeride rim seems to have opened up a new world of off road riding on the KH 29’er. But can 9mm really make that much difference? (more…)

The rain clouds cleared briefly and I headed out with the Freeride 29’er. The combination of the 47mm rim and Stout 2.3 was great fun on the wet muddy tracks, like a 4×4 wheel drive… a 1×1? (more…)

It takes some convincing to head out for an off road ride in cold Winter rain but after the first few minutes you realize it’s well and truly worth it. Riding off road in the rain is great fun, equal parts peaceful and crazy slippery. Plus how else can you test if a new mudguard works? With the Topeak Defender M2 fitted to my KH 29’er I headed out into the forest, onto a loop I know from experience puddles up well. (more…)

The Schwalbe Racing Ralph 2.4 has been a great summer tire.  Fast and light, a perfect match for the 29’er and Wombat Forest trails. With wetter late Autumn/Winter weather setting in and my Rampage 2.35 from last Winter missing in action on my  29’er loaner uni, it was time to try a new tire. Kris Holm favors the WTB Stout 2.3 on his new wider Freeride 29’er rim and Unicycle NZ had one in stock, so why not give it a whirl! (more…)
