History
The club was informally founded in 1957,[1] and officially registered as a non-profit organization on March 21, 1958,[2] with Richard Wright elected as the club's initial president.[3] Officers of the club were Richard Miller (vice president), Mary Webster (secretary), Percy Pinkerton (treasurer), and Ted Jorgensen (sergeant-at-arms).[3] Jorgensen became vice president of the club in 1959[4] and took over as the president in 1962.[5] The club operated out of the Schwinn Bicycle retailer Loyd's Bicycle Shop,[6] owned by Loyd W. Smith.[1] Membership grew to 26 by 1960, the club's third year.[1]
The club was the first unicycle hockey club both in United States,[7] and the world.[8]
At the New Mexico State Fair in 1958, the club won the Most Comical award for the second time.[9]
The club became defunct in 2001.[2]
