Nathan Tappin
Age: 19Location: Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
I have lived in Ottawa, Canada all my life and always dreamed of seeing what life is like outside of a government/tourist city in Canada. I can't wait to go on this tour as it will be my first time out of North America!

I just graduated from the University of Washington in Seattle, and am gearing up to teach French and unicycling at a local Montessori school. I'm engaged to Andy Cotter and we live on a farm.
Andy Cotter

I started long distance riding in 1999 and since then been on six uni tours either in a riding or support role.
Tom Blackwood
Location: Issaquah, Washington USA
I learned to unicycle mid-life, after trying and failing as a child. Persistence pays off. I've done long-distance fundraising rides for Multiple Sclerosis the past three years, which is my main motivation for distance uni. I've ridden unis in four countries so far, and look forward to making Vietnam the fifth in 2008.
Nathan Hoover
Age: 48Location: Los Gatos, California, USA
I started long distance unicycling in 1999 and went on my first tour in 2003. Now it's become a family activity although this time my wife and son won't be coming. I love unicycling in foreign lands and find it's so much easier to meet people with a unicycle. Vietnam will be my 21st country for unicycling.
Christof Jakobi
Age: 34Location: Zurich / Switzerland
Started unicycling in 1990, played 10 years hockey and then moved from Germany to Switzerland. Here I bought my first muni, broke my leg with it, bought more unis and munis and founded last year the unicycle club of Zurich.

I was born in Lower Austria and live in Vienna for more than 20 years now. I am a bicyclist since I was a kid, and I always wanted to learn to ride a unicycle. I got my first uni for my 40th bithday. When I read about unitouring on the internet, I thought: That ist impossible, I have to do that.

Owner of Grasshopper Adventures. I will be along on the ride to manage everything and look after you all. I will be riding a bike - sorry about that! Ken is trying to get me to buy a Schlumpf but I can't see it happening before Uninam.
