RSD United gave us a game for a while, we were up just 6-4 at one point&#8211;they have some of the world&#8217;s fastest unicyclists. But things are going well so far. Tomorrow morning we play probably our toughest prelim, &#8230;against a French team (CYCL&#8217;HOP), and in the afternoon we will have our first quarterfinal game.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Marcus is 4th from left in the photo<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/lee.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/berkeley-unicycle-basketball-Team-posterized.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-3316\" title=\"berkeley unicycle basketball Team-posterized\" src=\"http:\/\/lee.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/berkeley-unicycle-basketball-Team-posterized-300x199.png\" alt=\"berkeley unicycle basketball Team-posterized\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lee.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/berkeley-unicycle-basketball-Team-posterized-300x199.png 300w, https:\/\/www.lee.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/berkeley-unicycle-basketball-Team-posterized-200x133.png 200w, https:\/\/www.lee.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/berkeley-unicycle-basketball-Team-posterized.png 577w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My friend Marcus, the founder of the Berkeley Revolution is at this moment in New Zealand with his \u00a0unicycle basketball team having a blast playing against all the best unicycle basketball teams in the world! local version: He is at Unicom, The 15th International Unicycling Convention and Championships held in Wellington New Zealand this year!
