stolen unicycle in vancouver
Hi all, my daughter (a cirkid as you can probably tell) just lost her unicycle to a thief, who stole it from the trunk of my car last night. We bought it last year as a group buy through Cirkids and I'm not sure where...I can find that stuff out later on. I'm not sure the brand though it has "Twenty" on the frame in a kind of "tag" font (I didn't pay much attention since I never dreamed it would get stolen). It wasn't that expensive, has a 20" wheel. For now I was hoping there was some kind of network for stolen unis. People who keep their eyes peeled etc. this is a devastating blow to my 9-year-old, who has worked really hard and has become really attached to her uni. thanks. -- cirkids-mom ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cirkids-mom's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/12217 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/49389 |

Since most people don't steal unis because they plan on riding them, two of the places to keep your eyes open are eBay (you can do location-based searches) and Craigslist - there's one for Vancouver: http://vancouver.craigslist.org/. Good luck in tracking your uni down - I'd hate to have one of mine ripped off - I'm sure it's only worse for your daughter! -- bmemike I dub thee Sir Phobos, Knight of Mars, beater of ass.

thanks guys. I did post an ad on craigslist and I'll watch eBay, fwiw. Not holding out much hope so I'm gonna start shopping for a new one. Having the brand is a good starting point. -- cirkids-mom ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cirkids-mom's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/12217 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/49389 |

Hello cirkids mom! I'm actually an ex-cirkid myself. I will let some of the other local riders know and we'll keep a look out. You can get a hold of the local Vancouver club via www.vanuni.com .. If you or your daughter are intersted in any help or advice buying a new uni, looking for some people to ride with, or any general unicycle information just drop us a line. Cheers, - James PS. If your daughter (or any other cirkids) would like to come out to the event described here it that would be great: http://www.unicyclist.com/forums/showthread.php?t=49265 -- JamesH ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JamesH's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/4438 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/49389 |

Hi James, thanks for the invite and the support! I actually found out where the group purchase was done, and contacted the store...turns out they have an identical uni in stock, and will sell to me for only a few dollars more than my original. I'm almost sure i'll just go buy it tonight, since I'm guessing the chances of recovering ours are pretty slim. It's great to know about local events...she's a beginning rider but it's her favourite part of cirkids so I'm sure she'd be interested. cheers! -- cirkids-mom ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cirkids-mom's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/12217 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/49389 |

It's a circus arts program for kids age 4-17 I think, and they run adult classes too. check out http://www.cirkids.org -- cirkids-mom ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cirkids-mom's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/12217 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/49389 |
