There’s Unicycling and then there’s UniGeezer!
You are probably asking yourself “what is a unigeezer?” Well, I found myself asking that same question. I received an email from a guy stating to be ‘UniGeezer’ and he told me about the extreme unicycling sport he specialized in…off road unicycling called “MUni” (short for Mountain Unicycling). I have to admit, at first I thought he was pulling my chain. I’ve heard of unicycling, but MUni? That IS extreme!!! So I checked out his website and there it was! Terry Peterson…a 53 year old MUni…hence the name UniGeezer! I was absolutely amazed at his videos. Here’s a guy that’s old enough to be my dad and he is rocking this sport of off road unicycling & he’s a pro!! I was embarrassed to think of how badly I mountain bike after watching him on only one wheel flying down these steep dirt trails!
For those of you who are not familiar with Terry, he’s a part-time resident of Henderson, where he stays at his brother’s house, and he frequently visits the amazing technical trails at Bootleg Canyon! So, it’s great to see a local with so much talent in our own backyard!
Terry is sponsored by Unicycle.TV and he has his own website, unigeezer.com, where you can learn more about him and view hundreds of his amazing MUni videos!
Terry…if you’re reading this…my helmet is off to you!! I can barely mountain bike, let alone unicycle down a mountain trail. You rock!!!

WOW!! I thought that I had seen it all and then along comes the Unigeezer. Pretty amazing, but I think he must be a little insane too. I don’t think I’ll be trying this anytime soon, but I would love to see it live.

Thanks for the nice comments everyone! I’ve made many more extreme mountain unicycling videos, which you can find on Youtube under ttt8699, or they are also linked on my website, http://www.unigeezer.com
Ride on!
