I picked up on this thread a wee bit late, but that is really sad news Unibikers ability to ride a 'unibike' certainly has a place in unicycle history.

This forum is an intersting place. For me, it's filled with two kinds of people. Friends I have met, and friends I haven't met. I never met Jeff, but I did read all of his posts. He seemed like a very interested person. I'm very sad to learn of his death, and I'm also sad that I will never have the privilage of riding with him. -- mscalisi - Not such a newbie anymore ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mscalisi's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/4961 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/37292 |

I scanned throught 10+ thread titles before opening this first. I knew from his posts that he was having back problems, and was likely in a lot of pain. My prayers go out to him and his family and friends.

i remember shortly after i was able to ride my uni i saw a post by unibiker and saw his avatar and naturally i immediately went out and tried it myself, i figured that if i could now ride a unicycle surely i could hold a wheely on my mountain bike. it was not the case. i am sorry the hear the manor of his death, suicide has hit close to home for me a couple times in the past so i can imagine a little bit of what his friends and family are going through RIP Unibiker -- HandyAndy - Guest -Andrew Smit- -this is the space under my name- munimanpete wrote: *"Handy Andy makes a floor feel good" * ------------------------------------------------------------------------ HandyAndy's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/3836 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/37292 |

It was very distressed to hear about unibiker's last few days with us.
Please allow me to say a few words about Jeff Baker aka unibiker: He was a unicyclist in a class by himself. His long distance unibike ride stories were well read and respected. He rode his unibike faster than any unicyclist ever rode a unicycle and was a extremely interesting writer by any measure. With his passing there is one less unibiker and unicyclist, but we will never, ever completely forget him and his stories. Anyone who hasn't read unibiker's posts should do so now, as you don't know what you're missing. We will all miss unibiker ... Sincerely, Ken Fuchs |

I was always hopeful that Unibiker would set the official 25K or one hour time trial record and hold it long enough to get in the Guinness Book Of World Records. That would have given the geared Coker riders a time to shoot for. But it also would have been a controversial record. Is the unibike a unicycle? Should it be allowed to hold a unicycle record? It would have been so fun to see that play out. And I'd like to think that Unibiker would have found it to be fun too. -- john_childs - Guinness Mojo john_childs (at) hotmail (dot) com Gallery: '' (http://www.unicyclist.com/gallery/john_childs) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ john_childs's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/449 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/37292 |
