London Bike Polo

I'll be coming to spectate as my ride is in the build stage

so who's coming? rain seems to have stopped

me

Good games today despite the rain.

Bent fork = barspin possibility.
Horatio's bars on my thigh = him levitating.
Scab reopen = GAIDS.

MOH.

wet times

your soul is mine!!

Ha...
first 2 seconds...
YouTube down for maintenance

I know I asked this 1000 times already, but we do play with field hockey balls, don't we?

Fave moment from yesterday was having Chris Crash lean in on me, getting his bars hooked on my thigh and then Chris... well, you can guess the rest.

BTW, I am absolutely covered in bruises...

Yea, field hockey balls.

There's a softer option out there but nobody seems to be able/bothered to find it.

bill, i've got a massive ball bruise in the muscle of my left shin, from where dt smacked me.

EDIT: anna getting rough?!?

dt smacks everyone. fact.

I think I am the only player that managed to avoid a DT special yesterday! Although I have a bruise on my left shin roughly the same size as Yorgo's mallet...

:-)

my down tube feels your pain...

...and my forks.

EDIT: anna getting rough?!?

Yeah, after that one came back off the post, she gave me a clout around the head and screamed

'GET BACK OUT THERE AND SCORE, YOU MUPPET!!!'

see, if you were drunk you wouldn't have noticed any of this ;)

Yeah, you're probably right

(opens the fridge and pulls out a couple of cold ones)

that's better!

Couldn't give Bill a beer yesterday.

And I owe you one!

this thread is finally getting some drama. :)

hey all! Ryler here. i am still desperately seeking a slot in a team, any team, that is short a person for the tournament. If you have a team member who can't make it or is hurt or whatever: let me know! I will be at the tournament whether I am playing or not. I REAAAAAALLLYYY want to play.

Hey All,
just got this email (I love the use of the word "first"):

Hello European Bike Polo Teams

We're glad to invite you to the first European Hardcourt Bike Polo Showdown. The Tournament will take place on the
18th of october as a part of the Bicycle Film Festival in Zurich. We have confirmed registration form all over Switzerland, Germany
and the U.K. Of course the main challenge will be to beat the current european champion Team Basel. We will play in a big warehouse
so you dont have to worry about weather and temperature. Besides Polo and the Movies there will be other Bike Messenger related stuff
going on all over the weekend. So we promise that the journey to Switzerland will definitely be worth it. If you're interested in entering the
Bike Polo Tournament please write an email to jerome@thiriet.net to register. More Info and a flyer will be up soon. Check back on fahrradkurier.ch for updates!
