Season 1 Episode 44 Published 2 years, 4 months ago
Description

In this episode I had the pleasure of interviewing Rebekka Wiedener who recently completed the European Divide Trail on a Unicycle!  Rebekka started learning to ride a unicycle at the age of 10 and the places she has explored on one wheel are truly phenomenal.

She ​is ​a ​two ​times ​Unicycling ​Uphill ​World ​Champion ​and ​she ​has ​a ​lot ​of ​experience ​in ​unipacking, ​which ​is ​multiday ​adventures ​on ​offroad ​trails ​on ​a ​unicycle. ​In ​2017, ​Rebecca ​unipacked ​the ​Arizona ​Trail, ​800 ​miles ​of ​offroading ​from ​Mexico ​to ​Utah. ​In ​2019, ​she ​enjoyed ​a ​unipacking ​adventure ​through ​Scotland, ​which ​included ​an ​ascent ​of ​Ben ​Nevis, ​the ​UK's ​highest ​mountain. ​Her ​most ​recent ​expedition ​saw ​her ​complete ​the ​European ​Divide ​Trail, ​a7,500km ​route ​which ​lays ​claim ​to ​being ​the ​longest ​off ​road ​bike ​packing ​route ​in ​the ​world.

So what's it like to take on big adventures on a unicycle? Listen to Rebekka share her story and her experiences from taking on the European Divide Trail.
