Birmingham Bike Polo (Wednesday nights / Sundays - info in the thread)

sun is shining! get your asses out tonight!

Hope it stays dry. I probably won't make it til 7ish... how long are you staying?

i'll be there for a few hours

BASTARD WEATHER.

Didn't even get halfway down Hagley road.

WHAT A CUNNER.

HTFU!
We played some good polo.
With an impressive spread of goals dan and anthony will be pro in no time.
Tho Shamim and I obliterated them 3-0 in 2on2 (after Chris and I were obliterated by them 0-3).

3 mallets ready to be made up to order - £5 a pop.
Mallet length should be 1-2cm below the saddle, so if you give me the spec i'll cut em down for you.

aye I should htfu and brave the rain but you know the score... maybe if i hadnt worked all day in it yesterday!

^ i hear you man

Birmingham are representin in the Euros. There will be blood!

Put me down for a pole, one of the green ones if you have it, about 94cm length. Will sort u out. So London, are we on? how many to a team?

Fin, stop cutting the Poles you xenophobe

tonight? let's get it on. we need training.

In the rain?

Looking very unlikely, im already soaked through an my feet look like that of a 90 year old man.

yeah, it looks rank. i knew i should have gone out last night when it was just windy rather than pissing it down.

Suggestion, feel free to ignore....

Covered rooftop basketball pitch on corner of Gooch st?

Might be too small but if not they might let you hire it when it's raining?

great idea. i take it it's concrete/tarmac/asphalt/some other hard surface? would be cool to be able to play in the dry on a rainy day.

I reckon it is. Look at http://www.bing.com/maps/ its the first building on left on Goodge Street/Bishop Street turning left off Sherlock Street. Go to Birds Eye view, it is the white roof with 2 rows of skylights, you can see a five a side net at one end (rotate view with arrows). 3 sides are open with mesh fencing.

that place looks ideal. just gotta find out how much it is. ideally we would find a covered carpark with lax/no security... any ideas anyone?

NCP/toys r us car park is deserted mostly. There is abandoned cars on the upper levels!

Oh, and I found some pics of you chaps destroying (yourselves/crowd) in london. Looks fun.

we should check out toys r us if it's raining then. is the roof high enough to swing a mallet? is it accessible after 6pm?

that photo of fin is ace, you wouldn't believe he could get that tangled up - it looks staged!

more photos of us here:

Hi guys !

the weekend was lots of fun in london, but its a shame i had no chance meeting you guys !
i was almost all day on saturday exactly in the background of the coloured picture that deadly_fanny_pack posted. (karlsruhe corner)

Are you guys playing every weekend regularly ?

that's fin?! doesnt look anything like himself!

yeah, it's only when you look really closely that you see the bike growing out of his armpit.

Is it on this wednesday?
