LanceB Posted January 4, 2014 Share Went to Tokai for the first time in years this morning. Was notably taken aback by the rampant deforestation, yet in mitigation I must say one can see very committed local trailbuilding in challenging circumstances. The rockgardens and obstacles on the Mamba trail were most enjoyable… Interestingly there was a group of kids, on unicycles, careering down the Mamba ahead of me, in a staggered formation, stopping and resuming as part of a tutorial session, I assume. May I commend them on their sense of adventure and excellent trail discipline/awareness, all heeded my advance and gave me a generous margin to pass them. And with no residual attitude either. I was impressed. gongmech, Pants Boy, Capricorn and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJR Posted January 4, 2014 Share Agreed, the UNI guys are some of the friendliest around. I suppose that they really have nothing to prove to anyone but themselves. Most of us are in awe of their skills. Oufy MTB (Roadie) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kranky Posted January 4, 2014 Share The uni crew are great fun. Good to have them on the mountain. And their skills really put the two wheelers in their place Edited January 4, 2014 by Nick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jewbacca Posted January 5, 2014 Share The unicyclists rock.. Their skill level is awesome and their friendly and accomodating manner is awesome. If everyone treated everyone as courteously as they do we would have an awesome environment to ride in. I am more than happy to slam on brakes and wait for them to bobble over a rooty/rocky session. I do often. Its really cool that other people feel the same way as I have definitely heard a few cyclists grumbling about how the UNI guys clog up 'their' trails....
