I started unicycling with my children in 2008 and have been riding ever since.

Communication

Unicyclist for 18 years

Why did you join the Unicon 21 team? I joined the Unicon team because I love the unicycle community and have so much fun working with the team of directors. I’m excited to be able to give back to such a wonderful, supporting group of people! I was born and raised in Minnesota, and I can’t wait to show everyone how beautiful the state is!

Lisa Krack

Sponsorships and Marketing

Unicyclist for 15 years. I learned after driving for a team during Ride the Lobster. Didn't think I could because I have vertigo issues, but I heard it could help with that. It did, but I'm still a very timid rider. 

Why did you join the Unicon 21 team? I joined the team because I was excited that it would be in the States and I'm not much of a competitor, so it was a way I could help out and put my work skills to use.  

Favorite unicycle activities: I like watching trials and group freestyle. I enjoy racing track because right now, it's about all I'm physically able to do. lol.
