  1. Has anyone seen issue 4 yet? I e-mailed the contact address on the
    magazine's website 3 weeks ago when I noticed that the issue was listed
    for sale, but I haven't had either a reply or my subscription copy.

  2. No I haven't had mine yet. But hopefully if it's listed on the website
    it means it's imminent. Something to look forward to in the next few
    days then? 🙂

  4. I made the same mistake a month ago. It has been listed on the site for
    awhile, but not with the final cover. I think it is still in the works.
    Mike has promised in earlier postings to let us know when it is ready.

    1. Issue 4 of Uni magazine
    2. Delivery of the new coker unicycle
    3. Christmas

    Because the paper that it is printed on comes from a very rare Canadian
    Redwood that Mike Penton cuts down personally. Getting to such a remote
    location and then dragging the tree back by hand takes some time you
    know.
    The ink that's used is from the almost extinct rare giant squid of the
    species Architeuthis, which Mike personally catches while scuba diving
    off the shores of Australia.
    The printers that the artwork gets sent to is of such a high standard
    that it makes the dwarves of Gringotts look like bumbling amateurs.

    You should feel awe and wonder when you hold a copy in your hands.

    Any magazine for niche markets will be expensive. My brother owned a
    small magazine that catered to computer network specialists - when I
    saw the subscription rate I nearly swallowed my teeth.

    I s'pose unicycling hasn't completely arrived yet. But on the bright
    side - we're the pioneers.

    What really takes the time is ensuring and watching the trees that were
    cut down be replaced and grow to maturity. And have you ever tried to
    get those squid to mate? Don't even go there!

    February), so should be in the mail within 2 weeks time. As promised,
    I'll post with exact details when I have them.
