I'm gonna be on BBC radio Manc later to chat briefly about unusual sports.

Possibly tenuous, as it's so old (and sorry for ES link!). Evening Standard are running a picture feature on White City Olympics - pic 13 (and also the feature pic for this story on the ES homepage) - loving the bow ties!

Radio manc ran out of time, they mentioned bike polo briefly but didn't call me, the bastards!
