Keith Bindlestiff wrote: One wheeling is not just one day a week, it is a life style. Sundays is the Hell on Wheel Unicycle Gang meet up and Uni Basketball in Chattham, Friday is Uni Hockey in Pittsfield, and The Uni Bridge Tour is generally during the week. And one can also get a bit of the one wheel action going at Monday night Juggling Club in Hudson and Tuesday night Juggling in Brooklyn.
