Unicon XV - Last chance to check it out

Posted by kowhai on Thursday, 07 Jan 2010

The Unicon XV has been in town since the 28th of December, with one wheelers decorating the waterfront and what feels like the whole damn inner-city, saving us from that ghost town feel over the holiday period.  The Wellington flickr pool and the papers have been packed with photos of the action.  There is something pretty photogenic about the sheer range of unicycle enthusiasts of all nationalities that have decended on our fair (but windy) city.

Today is your last chance to check out the action, the Best Trick Contest will be held outside Mac's Brewery Bar at 2.00pm weather permitting.  

See you down there.

I thought this was a piece about unicorns, and then it wasn't, and then I was sad. 

Hannah and I went and checked it out. Despite the wind, there were lots of people there. The audience and competitors all were good-natured and low-key, and there were some fantastic acrobatics after the competition itself. Good times.
