Ahhh... extremeunicycling.com. This project is so so close to
completion. There is going to be photo examples on the riding types,
more information overall, better stuff on the media page. We are
planning on making sweet extremeunicycling.com hoodies, shirts, etc.
The main idea of extremeunicycling.com is to be a portal. Say you're
on a ride and people are really curious about unicycling. Give them a
sticker, and let that be the portal for them to be introduced into our
unicycling world. Right now, if you search for "unicycling" with
google, you will get some great sites. However, none of them are
really designed for people with no knowledge of a unicycle. I think
extremeunicycling.com can fill this niche perfectly.
The site is also for the community as well as non-riders. You can
create a cool sticker design, upload it, and if we like it we'll make a
new batch of stickers with it. Click on the "Riders" page, (soon to be
renamed "Sightings") and look at photos of people and their stickers.
Take photos of the sticker and you (or just the sticker) in the most
creative or most famous locations you can think of. Upload em, and
share with everyone! We like to think of it as an awesome way to
'spread the love.' Be careful about where you stick your stickers
though - we don't want no trouble with the law.
I still have a small stack of stickers, so go ahead and send in the
S.A.S.E.'s if you'd like. The address and everything on there is
right. If I run out, then you'll have to wait till the next batch
before anything is mailed back to you. Hopefully we can order another
batch some soon.
Brian and I have been working on this project for almost a year and a
half now. Mike Carol and Noah Peller have also been key in this
project. The website graphics/layout and sticker is a collaboration
between Mike, Noah, and myself. Dan Heaton is also helping out,
hopefully we'll see the fruits of his labor soon...
It's going slow... but we're sooo close. Hopefully we'll have the site
done by 2008. psssyychh! Probably a lil sooner than that.
We'll keep you posted on the projects progress. Feel free to post
suggestions, problems, etc.
Later,
Jess
p.s. If you went to Moab 2005, you might remember when I spoke briefly
about the site. Also, I passed out loads of stickers there.
