  1. Hello, Im going to tell about a story that happened today! I hope you
    like it!

    Ok so today me and my friends decided to ride our unicycles too
    school (hes been riding since October 2005, and can only ride it and
    bunnyhop like 1 inch ) So when we got to school this lady asked us if
    we wanted to do a Demo for the school since it was Ride to school day,
    because our school won the most people who ride a bike to school award.
    My friend who unicycles ( he got his for christmas ) already got asked
    since he rode his unicycle to school just by coinsadence. So at the end
    of school we rode around, and this guy started talking to my friend and
    I, and he was like i have a Coker, and a Custom Muni, and then we were
    like all "Cool" and then my friend said " Do you ride Trials?" he was
    like "No, but most of my friends do", Then he said "I just went up to
    China with Kris Holmes, 2 years ago" me and my friends were so
    Amazed..He was like 45 too! He was like the Administrator for Bikes in
    our city. Then after school me and friends rode alot! Like i learned
    how to bunnyhop like 2 cm. lol..But yeah, it was a AWESOME DAY! I hope
    you enjoyed my story!

  6. for me about 2 feet. 24" thats on a good day though. probably more like
    20" average. Don't wory if you can't figure out how people hop really
    high, just keep practising and you will gradually improve the height.

    I'm going to take a guess and say you met Tim Bustos.

    He is the bicycling and pedestrian promoter for the city of Davis. I
    don't have any pictures of Tim, but John Foss likely does. He's been
    active in unicycling for many years.

    I have met Tim, but I don't know him. John Foss knows him.

    I don't recall him posting here in a while. He may not even read the
    forum (newsgroup) any more.

    You should be able to contact him through the city of Davis.
