  • Standard of play is OK I suppose; but we are getting better.

    I am currently unsure if we are playing this week, as I know that two of the gang will be away on business tomorrow. So it would probably be best to call me. There is a Multi use Games court on the playing field behind my house, so if you fancied a one-on-one knockabout if the others are not available call me.

    The Pololoaner is currently out of commission due to a broken Dual brake lever; I have one on order, but there seems to be no replacement stock available in the UK at the moment .... today I've rung around all the UK bicycle component suppliers that list this item to no avail.

    The Pololoaner is on 26 X 1.9 tyres and set up as a crude s/s freewheel arrangement: middle chain ring, and 3rd on the cassette, and apart from it being finished gloss JCB bright yellow, it is identical to my Polo hack in the above photos

  • Or google Odyssey Modulever:

  • You may have to convert your own cables though.

  • General question: Would you Tuesday players attend occasional Tuesday alleycats or prefer to keep up with polo?

  • We actually discussed this 3 or 4 weeks ago, and we would attend Alleycats, and have a Polo knock about before hand. If we finished the AlleyCat sometime around 9pm we would go and play some more Polo

    You crazy bike monsters.

  • Due to Holidays, sickness and business trips, there is no Hardcourt Bicycle Polo in Norwich this week or next ..... unless someone fancies a one-on-one knock about anytime with just me (ah! the joys of self-employment), so give me a call on 07758 786036 and we can use the the Pilling Park MUGA (not floodlit) behind my house.

    The postcode for the Pilling park Community Centre and car park is: NR1 4PA and there is also car park access from Harvey Lane Thorpe Hamlet.

  • Nearly finished the polo steed

  • Nice looking steed there Mark.

    My old BSO based polo hack has just been fitted with a wheel disc:

  • Moving out of Brighton and heading back to Norwich for a couple weeks, polo is only ever once a week right?

  • The regular polo is only on a Tuesday evening. However, I don't mind having a knockabout 2-3 evenings a week .............. I need the practice.

  • I'd be up for playing maybe tomorrow night or thursday. I only have my beater mallet on me. How easy is it to get to the court from the train station?

  • Anyone wanna play tomorrow?! PLEASE!!

    also http://www.lfgss.com/thread60742-7.html possibly for you Cargo Cycles?

  • Hello TD,

    Can you send me a text please to 07758 786036 and I'll call you back.

  • I'll text you in the morning, a little late now I should think.

  • I fancy coming to have a watch, only got a very unpolo Bob Jackson...

    Where/When?

  • Google map of where we play: http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?hl=en&...-8&sa=N&tab=wl

    Tuesday evening at the sloughbottom park floodlit MUGA, opposite the pavillion and we will gladly welcome anyone who turns up and wants to have a go.

  • Are people playing tomorrow?!

  • Alas,

    I have business this evening, and so I am unavailable to play Polo.

  • again, are people playing tomorrow?!?

  • Is anyone playing today? ever in Norwich!!

  • I think Gareth (Cargo Cycles) is on the only person on this forum that plays.
    Some of us ride now and again, the rest just hang out.

  • I'm interested in giving this a go - I've never been on a fixie before, but always enjoyed similar sports whether on foot or otherwise.

    Is the "pololoaner" bike still available, say for tomorrow (October 4th)?
