How far west are we talking? I live in central AB. Even without flying, it'd be hard to get a large number of unicyclists out... it's a long drive to BC...

It's not that they don't care, just not enough of the unicyclists in the world read this forum. I've seen at least three other unicyclists in this small town of 40,000, but I don't think they've ever posted on this forum.

Yeah, it's true, you won't get a good turnout. It's impossible to get connected with all the riders around. There are three others in my town, but none of them are on the forum, even though I've told them about it several times.

Every town seems to have a rider or two, but you'll never find them except for by random chance. I think if we give the sport a few years, and continue to go hard promoting it and connecting with these guys one by one, we just might do it.

If you pick a date for it, for 4 out of ten it would be the wrong time, for another 5 it'd be too far or expensive to travel, and the other guy wouldn't be interested in coming.

You may have noticed I asked the question of how far west in my first post, but anyways AB is NOT Central Canada. So we're not the coast, but we are the west. But who really cares anyways, we're unicyclists and that's the whole point.

Anyways, the point we Albertans are trying to make is, it's gonna be extremely difficult to get a good representation of any larger area to come out to a uni meet untill we have a larger riding base in Canada.

You might also note that the thread starter is from Red Deer. That's a half hour drive south of my town in Central Alberta.
