  1. There are some "famous" team members but who else is on the bedford
    team? do they only have a trials team? Apart from Ryan and Jeff? or is
    Kris the only Narco unicyclist?

  2. I was thinking about this- I've heard of the Bedford Factory Team, but
    are there any other teams out there?

  5. Trials is the main focus of the Bedford Factory
    Team.

    The team does shows at festivals and fairs to promote unicycling as a
    sport.

    We know we have been the reason kids in Bradford
    have taken up unicycling after doing the fair there the last few
    years.

    MUni isn't something you can do or demonstrate at a street festival. We
    do mention MUni in our shows.

    The team will compete in upcoming 24 hour events
    as well.

  6. Awesome! That's a great way to promote the sport, imagine having the a
    large number of the world's best riders all on one team!!! It does annoy
    me that unsuspecting members of the public get to see them in action,
    but as I dedicated unicycle fan, I don't! 😉 Will there be a Bedford
    Team video at any point in the forseeable future?

  8. On unicycle.uk.com under 'About Us', there is a list of of 'some of
    their sponsored riders- Simon McAndrew, Leigh Wilkins and Trevor
    Scofield'

    *

    These are our indiviual sponsered riders; although we also sponser every
    member of the UUU in the form of discount on most of our catalogue.

    What we do more than sponser riders is sponser events. We help
    Uni-Meets and also with the BUC, and we recently sponsored the Mountain
    Mayhem with reduced fees, food and t-shirts.

    but we got beat this year by Barry Gate's company.

  12. Yes Unicycle.com do and have sponsered people.
    In the past I've been part of the unicycle.com (uk) factory team in the
    mountain mayhem. Thanks for the race shirt and reduced price lights set
    and bits guys.
    In exchange- when I was interviewed by the race commentators I name
    dropped shamelessly and encoraged everone to vist unicyle.com to buy a
    unicycle.

  13. Umm... Darren... If I were to go to 24h of adrenaline this summer...is
    there a way I could hook up with you guys (or another unicyclist team)
    so that I don't have to be a "lone rider"?

    I still have to check If I'm goin' though but I'll try my best to get
    there... Should be great fun...
