Newcastle Polo

How do i get in on this action wanted to try for a while live in Jesmond

Gosforth Central Park, Wednesdays at 6pm and Sundays at 4pm. Come and watch or bring your bike and have a go, we usually have spare mallets. Word of warning though, bike polo can be addictive.

just been chatting to some friends. they are doing a film festival at hoults yard venue on the weekend 25/6th of september..ie in a few weeks.
they gonna be showing some bike films and stuff and i think Rollapalooza are gonna be there..

child friendly, nice day out, type art vibe i should think.

they want a polo demo going on with free rollapaloza entry and refreshments as the deal clincher?! i told them it can get a bit rough. hic.
talk about it wednesday if someone reminds anyone etc.

fuck yes, rollapalooza. been wanting a go for ages!

yeah heard about that at work today, will be sweet

Aye, there'll be a few takers for that Jackie lad

john .. yer bstard .. had to google cycle speedway when i got in ... how much do i want one of them Archie Wilkinson frames ... old skool chromo frame n fork for £100 .. and those handlebars !! proper track dropouts too !!

And just your size too Nige

i know fella ... far too bloody tempting ... and all the stuff seems really well priced too .. very impressed .... would be really interesting with a flip flop hub - fixed/free
... i'll just have to wait and see what happens over the next few weeks though

yeah, waiting sucks but I know you got other sh*t goin' on right now. How attached are you to that funny little folding thingy ;)

.. to be honest the Brommie is the most fun i've had on 2 wheels .. you really can't help but smile when you ride it ... and it likes to stop off for coffee and beer ... it insists on heading off down wee back lanes to go exploring, but most importantly, when you're tired or drunk, or the weather goes all geordie, you can put in the boot, or go home on the bus or the metro ... so parting with it will be hard
... that said, if the cash flow goes tits up in a few weeks time, its the only thing at hand that i can sell for decent wonga, so it may well have to go ..

Would be well up for a go on the rollerpalooza !

just to check, are people going to bristol? if not i should probably let them know.

Good question, Phil. No takers at polo last night, so the answer is an unfortunate no.

.... might sound daft ... but i reckon this one would actually have easier to get to than the bristol tourney ..

... we really should think about this one for next year ... indoor tourney ... holland ... sounds like paradise to me ...

Should be on time for a change tonight. Get it in while it's light

Sorry guys, but I'm unable to make it tonight!!
See you on Sunday.

just heading there now

Bollocks, left my mallets by the side of the road and forgot about them. Went back and they're gone. Broke one on Saturday too. Three fucking mallets in four days.

Anyone get's offered them on the black market, you know where I am.

No polo for me tomorrow unfortunately.

no polo for me unfortunately-either.

'kin 'ell, is there any point me turning up?

Hi Newcastle
Just taken delivery of a big load Franklin backdoor balls ( franklin factory not logo-ed).The ball that is going to be the official sponsored ball for the BFF!

We used the same ball for throw ins for today for over 5 hours and they are Exactly the same as red super high density franklins 100% . So good to use decent franklins again . Everyone is happy . Crap pics from my phone below ........

Before and after balls with Steve

So anyway,if anyone wants to buy any they are 4 for a tenner plus postage of £2.50 . Alternatively come to Cambridge Barnwell court on tuesday night or sunday for throw ins to collect ?
cheers RV

apologies..even turned in later on for a game about 5.30ish,nae sign.
coldcall-balls look good.

OK guys, I've PM'd Crackfox to confirm that we need balls. If we could decide on Wednesday how many we need and organize payment etc, that'd be great. Sorry if I've stepped on anyone else's toes by doing this, just didn't want to miss the boat, as it were.
