Unicyclists countdown to New Year!!!

It’s the last day of the year, and the last day of the decade. Hundreds of unicyclists spent the day enjoying it in Wellington with members of the public.  UNICON XV ran a public ‘learn-to-ride” workshop, which had dozens of people turning up to Frank Kitts park to try out unicycling!  Many were able to get on, and even go a few metres, after expert instruction from the worlds best unicyclists.

We had a live Unicycle Demo for the public at Civic Square, with The Berkeley Uni-basketball team showing off their best moves, our Street Champions doing various jumps over each other, and The Japanese Freestyle Team providing a crowd pleasing performance.

For the first time in Unicon history, hundreds of unicyclists from around the world gathered to count down the New Year in style!
