I thought Singletrackworld covered this last year. I should have stocked up on frames then........ Dammit!
Just think of the Gold i may possibly be raking in some time next year when Bike-polo dies a death.

That looks like serious fun! The chainrings look tiny so I reckon long Ole Olsen style skids round corners would be easy (as long as you've watered the track/gym floor)...
Who needs polo?!? I think Brockwell Park BMX track beckons... ;-) -

i reckon this could end up being popular, you can race without the need for a velodrome. its a shame we cant make use of our fixed bikes though.

Hi guys
I'm from Exeter in Devon and I have been doing cycle speedway for 10 years now... I'm 17 yrs old atm. If you have any questions about this I will be more than happy to answer them for you.
Yes this sport does really heavily on you being able to get out of the gate in front.. but then it's all about taking the right line into the bend, coming out tight enough to block opposing riders 'cutting back' and overtaking you up the inside.
If you wanna have a chat about it in more detail, just add me on msn. loramski@hotmail.com
Cheers, Craig
Even worse= he gets loads of orders, then gets TONY DAFONEY in with a design strategy, and fncks it all up.
Bye-bye value for money speedway bits...
