Trials movie: Venice Beach Unicycling

Over spring break my folks and I drove down to Los Angeles to visit my
uncle. It was cool because we got to hang out around Venice Beach, as
well as check out many of the colleges in that area.

Of course I brought my trials uni, and on Sunday my Dad was nice enough
to film me tearin' up the Beach area. (Which includes a little
skatepark.)

All was well until I broke my KH seat. (That's the 2nd one I've
broken.) I pulled up for a small drop, and I felt the front two bolts
rip through the plastic. Ugh. Fortunately, my ride was not finished as
I was still able to hop seat out, by holding right next to the rear
bolts.

Also, as I was riding down the boardwalk-type area, this downhill MT
biker named Chris Wilson started talking to me. He knew quite a lot
about Muni, and he told me he has ridden with Kris Holm.

So without further adieu, may I present:
VENICE BEACH UNICYCLING

To watch, go to 'unicyclejester.com/video.htm'
(http://www.unicyclejester.com/video.htm) (It's the first movie there).
It's 14.4 mb, and I should be getting a small version up there too.

Oh yeah, and the music is wicked cool!

Later!

Jess

That was cool, good riding, good music, but the best part was the
commentary by your dad. Haha.

I'd have liked to have seen a bit more of the kids on the recumbent
trikes in the background a little over 4 minutes in ;-)

You're not wrong there.

Yo,

That part of Venice is a half mile from my crib. If you end up going to
school down here, we'll have to hook up. Local hills are full of XXX
single tracks and the bike path (25 miles long, on the sand and right
next to the ocean) is second to none for speed Cokering.

Really? I was wondering if there were other unicyclists in the area. I
figured there were. Venice is such an awesome place, and that beach
area always has something going on. Chris Wilson was telling me about
the local hills. He said they were pretty good. Maybe next time I'll
bring my Muni!

Buh Bye!
