Brighton Hard Court Bike Polo - Official Thread

Fuck it! If it means we get a few games mid week for J's Birthday Polo Party, I'm still happy to chip in for Moulscoomb.

Tim. Sweet! What's the deal with membership/paying etc? Or can that all wait until after the trial session next week?

Has anyone looked into hiring a generator and lights etc for tomorow or Thursday evening? I occasionally hire tools from HSS. Might be able to pick up if I drive in. I could give them a call tomorrow. Not sure why I haven't thought of this before?

if we can get a generator i *MIGHT* be able to get some studio lights from school. they are pretty bright but not sure how many i can acquire which might be a problem as they don't have that big a spread of light.

in other news.
does anyone have a square taper poloable crankset lying around? big bmx is so close to go time.

I'd rather not play at Scoomb, but will go anywhere for the polo party. Guess I won't get much play time though, but lukily im next to a train station at work

They said not to worry for the time being. We're all go.

awesome for next wednesday at uni courts!

if no polo on thursday, lets get drunk!

p.s. thanks for all the efforts for the polo party! x

so RE: this Sundays polo, are we allowed to play on the new uni courts?

Nope. The courts are pretty busy most of the time. The reason we can have Wednesdays is because all of the proper sports teams are out getting drunk.

Maybe in future if we don't damage the courts we can ask about Sunday.

I like our Sunday PP sessions. It's home.

^+1. What does piss me off though is the hanging around and bullying we have to do to get a court most sessions.

We need to sort a poster out. "Bike polo on court 1, Wednesdays and Sundays from...to.... Come along and have a go..." etc. The park ranger/council would need to approve it, so nothing too crazy.

Anyone?

Jamie, it's because you're worth it.x

Josh, have you tried Julian at Cranks yet?

Any polo today?

Probably not Sam. We were planning to play tomorrow instead as it's Jamie's birthday but that's looking more likely to be a piss up now instead. Watch this space though as things could change...

If, gid forbid, we do end up on a pissup tomorrow, where we gonna head Trigger?

Preston Park of course...

^3rd bench from the left. If/when minds have been made up, can someone text me with the plan? I won't be near a computer all day, see.

Right i'm off to work, can someone gimme a text later with the plan? Im taking all my polo stuff in the hope we'll get a game or two somewhere

Last minute options are what? 'Scoomb, PP in the dark, car park, sea front. We had some good laughs playing the car park and sea front last winter. They're not proper full-on game sessions but it's freeeeee and we can drink.

Carbon forks for polo!?

12 tomorrow? No beers tonight. Polo head on.

yeah buddy

12 it is. I'm trying out FBO!

FBO? It's a bit damp out here. What's it like in town?

It's not too wet. Should be fine.

Hey gang

Please keep an eye out for my dutch bike

I left it unlocked outside of my house for a bit too long. It's probably been drunkenly riden into town and may well be abandoned somewhere. It's a backpedal brake so there's probably someone with a few missing teeth out there too!

Me at Jamies birthday :
