| Biography: | I am a self taught juggler and unicyclist since junior high school. While a student at the University of Illinois @ Urbana-Champaign (long before the World Wide Web was born) I read "The Unicycle Book" by Jack Wiley(?) which gave me the idea to start a club. In 1983 I founded the Illini Unicycle Club (a registered student organization at the UIUC campus) and served as the president for the first two years. Cathy Harbacek served as the second president. It was she who gave the club it current name, Illini Juggling and Unicycle Club, at the request of the members. During Cathy’s term the IJUC hosted it’s first Spring Festival. A great tradition that continues to this day. Please take a look at the IJUC web site http://www.uiuc.edu/ro/juggling/ and try to come to the next Spring Festival! –Rick L. |

| Biography: | I started out as a fetus. Not too long after that I became an embryo, and eventually I was born. Details get a little fuzzy after that. I started juggling in 1987, and unicycling in 1993. I think I'm about a level 3 or 4 unicyclist. |

| Biography: | I've been juggling since 1980 and riding unicycles since 1982. I started collecting unicycles after I learned to ride. I have 9 now. My next investment will be a large wheel, like a Coker. I try to make it to smaller juggling conventions, when they are close to Illinois. In 1998 I went to my first European Juggling Convention. I've been to 7 EJC conventions and 1 British Juggling Convention, so far. I've ridden in Edinburgh, Scotland, Rotterdam, Netherlands, Olomouc CRep. Svendborg Denmark, York, Great Britain and Ptuj, Slovenia. I can juggle 3 clubs and ride. I was a regular in the local fourth of July parade. Cheers |

| Biography: | Recently moved to Chicago from Portland, Oregon. While I was on a trip, a friend gave me a few unicycling lessons, but I didn't quite get it down. now I'm back in chicago, with a unicycle, wanting to play, but in need of some help. In my real life, I guess I'm an historian, which means that I spend a lot of time with paper. Being able to unicycle around the archives would cement my career aspirations. |

| Biography: | I started unicycling in 1999 right after my divorce. It tied right into my sense of fearlessness at that time and i needed a change. Once I started one wheel ramp jumping, I wanted to see how large and how far I could push myself. I had a pretty horrible accident in the fall of 2005 when I crashed while on my stunt uni into low hanging (8") branch. I lost 4 teeth and cracked a cheek bone. Thank god I was wearing goggles and a helmet. I've been trying to build my confidence to get back up but it's going to take some time. |
