Downhill Unicycling

one wheel

By Christopher BeardPublished 4 months ago • 1 min read

 It was a steep descent 

A way to go 

Just roll along with flow

Easy for those who know 

Fun to be had

Some got really rad

On top of the mountain

There was no doubting 

Could do whatever they were allowing 

So exciting the riders were howling 

Some went with speed 

Others more carefully would make heed

Hopping from rock to rock with ease

Maybe you never knew this was a sport

But it takes all sorts

It had been around for a while but really started getting established around 1994

Independently or as organised competitions it became recognised 

One wheel was the real deal 

From a Uni it became MUNI

Some might consider them loony 

Definitely not gloomy 

Watching them some are definitely zoomy

This is the story of downhill unicycling
