Brighton Polo

kai - go down to arron at the open market, he generally has lots of frames.

might be time to buy an old road bike. give it the SS polo treatment.

kai you can have the elswick in my basement... silver, not too heavy, needs a new bb, new everything?

less talk moar action, we need to get this started.

Im gonna be back inb brighton from thursday for 3 weeks i think, im gonna bring 2 polo mallets with me so people can have a go?

please do, I am building up a polo bike just need to swap some old cranks over and get a chain and I will be done.

project budget will be complete, although might need some brakes possibly.

right, looks like im not able to brign my fiexed-gear, btu ive got a bmx i should probably be able to use, bringing 3 mallets

Edit: have now arrived in Brighton- any sign of a polo meet up?

any chance of a test run at this? i've never ever played, or considered playing before, but it sounds like it might be a laugh. maybe?

i'd be up for a go. just need to fashion some sort of mallet and change my gear though: 48x15 not that agile. am around all next week for a game.

I'm building up a beater at the moment and am in three process of building two or three mallets.
I'm moving down in a month and a half and - in all hopes - I really would like to put together a team from Brighton for the ECMCs on August 1st/2nd. I'll be in on the 20th June which gives us a month to get awesome.
Anyone else interested?

Toby u had to register for the ECMC's last sat, all the spaces gone now. u really moving down to Brighton?

fuck, guess I'll just go, watch and get wrecked.
Yes, I am. Got an unconditional offer at the college and I've got a truck booked for the eighteenth of June.
Regardless of Euros, I still wanna get a team sorted down here.
How many are interested in getting regular games going?

sure we'll be able to rustle team of some shape or form

YEs! i was trying to get some polo practise whne i cam down for the eeaster holidays but noone seemed to respond, maybe the summer will entice people.
what college u going to toby? Varndean?

fuck that, BHASVIC. I want me some nice, meaty A-levels none of that IB stuff.
It's weekly drinks wednesday at that place by Queen's street right? Next to the awesome tapas bar.

awesome tapas bar? i can see you will fit in in Brighton well...
and as for BHASVIC, fuck that shit, Varndean ftw

love thread hijacking so much.
You grow up in Brighton then or what?

i have two new mallets, and maxl has my other mallet so that is three,
all we need is another three and we can actually have a game.

I'm building some and should have a couple of street hockey balls by the time I come down!
Just make super certain y'all get to wednesday beers on the 24th June?

24th june i will be cycling the alps!

but am up for giving polo a go...

be sure to get in touch before you head down to the wednesday pub - lots of guys race now on weds night, so we may have to move the social drinks to another day...

brighton drinks should now be on thursday night, then when all the 'bitches' is doing late night shopping, we can drink! How does this work out for people?

further more, 24th of june? I don't even know what day it is, let alone month!

I'm just damned organised!
Thursday it is.
I'll obviously holler a couple of days before to try and get you all out.

i'm in. thursday's a better day generally. it's closer to the weekend.

peps, live in my world and your whole life is a weekend! Welcome to the house of fun...
