You know when the sign says "3 have died! Walk bikes", there will be some technical riding.

A well shot video showing some very extreme trails at Moab Munifest in southeastern Utah. The two day mountain unicycling festival concluded on March 23 last month and this video was released soon after.

Keen eyes will recognise many well known mountain and trial riders throughout.

APUC/Uninats 10Km Sponsored Ride in aid of Love Your Sister

Submitted by crisb on Tue, 10/12/2013 - 22:32

This year, when you enter the Uninats 10km ride, you will also be entering a charity ride with Samuel Johnson!

Sam, who is riding 15,000Km around Australia by unicycle, will be in Canberra during UNINATS and will be entering the 10km ride. We thought this would be a great chance to raise some more money towards the $1million Samuel is trying to raise for breast cancer research through his ‘Love Your Sister’ Foundation.

We have attached a SPONSORSHIP FORM for you to download at the bottom of the page. If you plan to enter the 10km (or 5km!) ride please print this form and collect as many donations from friends and family as you can.

Please bring the completed form and cash to the registration desk or the 10km Charity Ride start line where you can hand in your collected donations or have your form stamped to say you have completed the ride, if you have donations that need to be collected once you finish.

If you have money that you still need to collect after the race we will give you banking details for Love Your Sister at the collection point.

Remember, you can still change your mind and enter the event even if you did not put it down on your registration form
