Jimbo and I went to see UPLIFT! Prescott Circus’ 2018 showcase at Oakland Tech. The show was fun, with really high production quality and good energy, and a great live children’s band, the Oakland Spirit Orchestra. And their unicycle act was solid enough to perform in place of their usual walking globe. Afterwards, Jimbo and I played around a little with a basketball, which the kids were really into.
The second installment of our Family MUni series was a lot of fun. We got great MUni weather, and ran into probably 70 or 80 kids from the high school teams.
I’m planning to start up a regular “Family MUni” series: an occasional ride designed for kids and newer riders, paced so that parents or friends can hike along, and less strenuous and technical than our normal rides.
I’ve been working on adding a brake to my 24″ (Pittsburgh), and Dragon and I took it out on its first big Joaquin Miller ride. It’s not totally dialed in but it’s definitely promising.
