The Uninats 2012 Movie Party

The Uninats Unicycle Party will be held on Saturday night at the Collingwood Gym (after all the daytime events).

Entry is free for all registered participants, and there will be music, lots of unicycle games and dinner whilst we watch the Video competition.

We will be collecting pizza from a nearby pizza shop - place your order before 3pm at the registration desk. You are also welcome to bring your own food & soft drink instead.

The theme for the party is 'Movies' - you can interpret this however you like, and come as a movie star, special effects monster or even the director! As long as you can still play red-rover, sumo, dodge ball and gladiators!

The Good Brew Company will be bringing their own locally made organic soft drink selection, on an unusual cycle.

Unicycling across the country for charity

Submitted by Rochelle on Tue, 12/07/2011 - 22:27

Several months ago, the AUS posted a story about David and Smanna who were unicycling across the country for charity - no mean feat - especially unsupported. Well, they made it! Seventy-eight days (and many sore muscles later!) after they set out from Darwin, they reached Glenelg in South Australia, raising money for the Little Heroes Foundation. You can read more about their trip and check out some great photos at Cycle Sports News.

Results of Revesby (Sydney) unicycle weekend

Submitted by Rochelle on Fri, 13/05/2011 - 00:07

Revesby recently hosted its Unicycle Hockey and Unicycle Basketball Championship. The weekend was a great success with 35 riders from NSW, the ACT and a couple from Victoria competing. Activities included a city night ride on the Friday, with basketball on Saturday and hockey held on Sunday.

There was added incentive this year, as the champions would be the first to have their team’s name engraved on the perpetual trophies.

Five teams competed in the basketball: Revesby Blue; Revesby White; Canberra; Sydney Red; and Sydney White. A lot of competitors were new to basketball but most games were very close, with Revesby Blue taking out the title undefeated, beating Revesby White for second and Sydney White for third place.

The most anticipated event was definitely the hockey, with a fierce rivalry between the three super powers of Canberra, Sydney and Revesby. Five teams competed for the title: Canberra fielded an A & a B team, with Sydney putting up Red and Black teams, and a full strength Revesby team.

The play off for third was awesome between Canberra and Sydney Red, with Canberra winning in golden point extra time 3:2. The hockey championship was taken out by Revesby who proved too strong on their home ground. They left their best performance for the final against Sydney Black, taking out the title with a score of 11:2.

It was great to see everyone enjoying the competition and thanks to all the competitors and family/friends who all helped make this a successful weekend.

Also a big thanks to Mal & unicycle.com Australia who sponsored the perpetual trophies. These will remain in the hands of Revesby until the next competition, probably Melbourne Uninats in 2012.

Unicycle Hockey and Basketball Weekend Update

Only two weeks to go to the Unicycle Basketball and Hockey weekend at Revesby!

On the 16th and 17th of April, Ashley Curtis from the Revesby unicycle club is hosting the 2011 edition of this popular weekend unicycling event. All riders are welcome - if you don't have a team, you'll be found one to join!

A social ride is being planned for Friday evening (15th) around Sydney city, from about 6pm - if you are interested, contact Ashley on 0414 321 150 or abcurtis_au@yahoo.com.au for final details.

A reminder of the event details:
