Evolution of Balance Award

I think this could be great for the sport, esp. if the riders go through
a village where they've never even heard of unis or where they are
rare, like your trip to Butan.

Maybee have an angle where people who never thought it would be
possible to learn to uni (even here in the US). I broke my back 8.5
years ago, now the only thing that works well below my waist is my
thighs, and need these to walk.

Two years ago I got interested in unicycling when I saw one of the vids
of Kris on youtube and was amazed, but didn't believe it was possible
to do at all for me. Six months later I took the plunge and got a 24"
DX. (Monday I hiked up and rode down 3.3 miles of 'highly tecknical'
(http://tinyurl.com/2hyfd9), for me, trails w/ 40ish UPD's )

Ride everywhere and never just ride anywhere. If you can ride where you
are going within a hour, do it, and if you can do a trick 50-75% of the
time do it along the way.
Parafrasing a pro skater when asked for advise to kids who wanted to
get much better and maybee turn pro one day.

There's no restriction on the number of team members.

Hey Kris,
What would be the case if I am 17 now, but will be 18 at the time of
the expedition, would I be eligible?

Thanks,
Seamus

I think the whole point is to travel. why would you get a grant to go
ride your local trails?
