I dont consider it cliquey - in that anyone can walk right into it and get involved, its not a closed group. Polo people definitely do go to other events (e.g. film fest at Barbican). One of the polo crew (gormley) came third or fourth at rollapalooza in LMNH.
You took our Gormley!! We want him back
When I arrived over here first I went to several non-polo events like the group rides around town.
Admittedly I gave up on them for a couple of reasons - first of all several people riding brakeless were doing it really dangerously in a group, fishtailing to stop the bike but with people on either side of them.
Interesting point. Personally this phenomenon is more devisive than any percieved polo cliques. I WILL NOT do the bridges ride because of this. I guess my work has made me a somewhat santimonious dick. Face it. This place has long since paced that critical mass. The best rides are spread sotto voce.
An NO Chris We don't like your types; we're all about panniers and signals. Sorry.
