Its Valentine’s Day, but that doesn’t stop the Sunset Race. I’ve been married long enough that it isn’t a highly encouraged [or else] type of holiday. Actually, we both agree its a made up holiday, but that is another topic. I started off the Sunset Race with a unicycle ride. Even after all these times … Continue reading “123rd Sunset Race – 2/14/2019”

I was riding one of my favorite unicycle tracks from my house getting some exercise and enjoying the weather. I heard somebody yelling at me (which is normal) but it was persistent. I looked over to see a young man running on the other side of a major street carrying a unicycle. I stopped and … Continue reading “Meeting Austin – 4/5/2018”
I’ve been wanting to do longer unicycle rides for a while now. Today I decided it was the day to do just that. The plan was to ride the Mississippi River Trail (MRT) loop. I started early going up the deserted Missouri side of the trail starting near the Gateway Arch. Going up the Missouri … Continue reading “MRT Loop – 2/25/2018”
Sometimes you just have to get out of the house and explore. Corvin and I wanted to go for a unicycle ride and it seemed just warm enough at the house. We packed the unicycles and headed downtown to the Mississippi Riverfront Trail. We got out of the van, unloaded and started to ride. It … Continue reading “Unicycles and Water Pipes – 2/18/2018”
What a super cold month! So cold in fact, there were pipes bursting all over town. One popped in my office building giving us some unexpected time off… I tried to turn my driveway into an ice rink. On a few of the warmer days, I got in some unicycle riding. My parents came in … Continue reading “January – 2018”
We had a break in the cold so Corvin and I were able to get in a unicycle ride. Its always hard to ride after you’ve been away from it for a while. We got to explore part of a new trail going in near our house and had a great time together. Hogan Haake
We participated in our first Moonlight Ramble this year. Its a 10 to 20 mile bicycle (and now unicycle) ride through downtown St. Louis starting at midnight. The original date for the ride was while we were on vacation but due to weather concerns, it was postponed. It got postponed twice more due to political … Continue reading “Moonlight Ramble – 10/21/2018”
After two days at a conference, I was ready for a break. So I planned for one accordingly. The DevUp conference was conveniently located in St. Charles MO, not far from the Katy Trail. Some will argue that its too rough for a unicycle, but I find the chat and hard packed dirt trails perfect … Continue reading “Katy Trail 25 – 10/17/2017”
Likely to be the last warm Sunset Race of the year, I made sure to get out there early and get a short unicycle ride in with the sunshine! When I got back from my ride, I was in time to see JoJo getting her boat down from on top of her van. A feat … Continue reading “October Sunset Race – 10/12/2017”
