Newcastle Polo

I can play 2 - 4 today. Who will be joining me?

Really need to play some polo. Unfortunately I can't make it today...... :(

Going to cut my losses and do something else. I'm out too.

hiya everyone

1 Attachment

Yes tonight, can't do Sunday.

im playing tomorrow..anyone else want to try and get at least 2on2? lukes in from 12.30-2.30 but in elswick.....
matts away this w/e and next...

I'm in.
Elswick? Isn't that the danger-court? WTF? Don't wanna go there!!
New court FTW

spose to be ok there now..

if we go to tourney court it'll be better to be early to ensure games... another court in exhibition park which is decent...

what times can anyone do?

Not sure I understand the thinking of going back there now that we've found a good court

I thought the point of going to the tourney court regularly was to have an established quality court, a place that people could be sure of finding us, to make it 'our new court'. Why change courts again now? Am I missing something?

I can probably make it for 1-ish

went down on thursday night to new court- it was packed.
had to find else where. went to exhibition park- all good for what was needed. 3 people turned out to play.

elswick thrown in as an option for tomorrow as 1 of the few players in newcastle who actually plays can only make it out to play if by chance anyone else can make it up there is all...

Fair 'nuff
Still keen to play, but 'cos I have to drive 10 miles to get to polo, it's useful for me to know where I'm going. Will follow developments on the forum in the morning .

Wakey, wakey, poloistas
Who's in?

Are we still expecting a visitor, Oliver?

sun!sweet!

i'll be at the new court for 1pm.

Havent heard anymore about him, dont have a contact number so we'll just 'av to see...

Let's hope the court is free, then.
I might be a little bit delayed

cant play tomorrow (on the off chance anyone suddenly remembered how much fun bike polo is), at least not til about 4.30-5 as it stands...

Tristan- off away going gone?
Sorry you wont be around to witness the new wave, but happy you're heading for adventureturestures

I like it John.
Apart from the slot in the disc not lining up with the rear valve!
How does it handle?

I recycled the wheel-discs from the old red bike from when I was running 700s. Valve access slot didn't line up that well when I pulled the cable-ties tight and I couldn't be arsed doing it again ;) What I did, instead, was to cut the slot wider for better access, but only on the NDS. If I was making new discs, I'd prolly have no valve access slots on the drive side at all.

Handling is pretty sweet apart from a small amount of wheel flop caused by slightly too much trail, which I'm gonna live with for now.

Anyone playing tomorrow? I'm back in the game Thursday and Sunday.

In other news, I resigned from my job today and will be moving to London on 12th May.
