  • If Max and I are going either of our bikes could be used for polo. Both single speed. Mine is a stripped and now rusting Pompino with a sweet rainbow seat post (which fades into a matching purple Brooks Colt). That makes it awesome.

    Max's is a frame he built himself while in Canada (well, visiting Porltand), which also makes it awesome.

    In fact, are on-one going to be there? I'd love them to see what people are doing to Pompinos. They have a weird relationship with polo (encouraging, followed by dismissive and not very friendly, followed by trying to buy into the scene by releasing an OTP polo bike, which sucked). Nonetheless, the Pomp is the number one polo bike in the London scene (and it's moving beyond). I'd like to talk to them one-on-one (see what I did there?) at some point.

    the day I'm there I can bring my DAMP Cycles polo bike, latest and greatest polo specific frame (kind of).

    Actually, those look good.

    vb, last i heard I thought Jonny's Copacetic had bit the dust? Remember him posting up about it? Well I think I did, might be best to ping him a pm.
    I think murtles as the requisite one man, one bike, commuter would be a good choice. Also shows the forum's community spirit as we bought it for him and all.
    Another point would it be a thought to have a mini bike pile in the stand of the members who are down to man the stall, might give you more bike bang for your buck. I'm assuming everyone will be riding down.

    All his bikes are copacetic. His bikes experience re-incarnation.

    Would there be any harm in having a different bike each day?

    More people would get to show their bikes, anyone there for more than a day gets a different bike to look at, nobody has to be bikeless for four days.

    As long as the bikes meet the criteria this might be easier to organise?

    Actually, I like this idea a lot. It also means I don't have to put extra security on overnight. But, the bikes would absolutely have to be guaranteed to be there on for 10am each day and would have to stay there until closing at 6pm each day.

    We need 1 polo, and 1 track/commuter.

    Time for a rota?

    1+ the rattlecanned plack 'dale is a good choice.

    what about Tynan's Argon 18?;

    Oh yes, and JD's beautiful Mercian.

    1+ on Mumble's geekhouse too.

    Like Tynan lets that leave his house, I'm not sure it's ever felt tarmac. Anyhow, how come he's now got a tri-spoke, I thought he was all over that mono-spoke thing ;)

    How many are you going to get? I may be interested in buying one off of you when done (if you're interested in getting rid of them, and, once seeing them, they'll do what I want in my tiny flat).

    Just the one stand, I think I can only fit 2 bikes on the stand, it's really not that large and whilst I'd hoped for three bikes I'm just not sure I have the space.
