Mountain Unicycling (MUni)
Unicycles
take to the trails in our MUni events! Riders demonstrate amazing
technical skill as they navigate rocks and roots in our local parks.
Distance
Unicycling
Distance riders use unicycles with wheels of up to
36" diameter, some with handlebars and gears. The top riders can reach
speeds of over 25 MPH, in events ranging from a short, intense criterium
to a grueling 42km marathon.
Basketball
All games at
Berkeley High School.
Preliminary Games (Thurs. July 15, 2pm) FREE to the Public
Championship Game (Fri. July 16, 8pm)
Cost is $5 for which you gain admittance to both the Basketball and
Hockey (6pm) championship games.
This year's U Games will feature the Puerto Rico All Stars, the most successful team in Unicycle Basketball history, having won by far more world championships than other team. Their biggest rival is the local team, the Berkeley Revolution, which placed second in the the most recent world championships held in New Zealand.
