^that is pretty much all I want to do. But no I'm stuck in the countryside where nobody plays polo, and those that do constantly flounce! might just start playing in Cambs!

Dropping the bike down to the lovely people at Enigma bikes near Pevensy tomorrow morning to have the canti mounts brazed on. Will let you know how I get on. I also enquired about bespoke polo frames. They said that they had already had a request and had drawn up the geo. I have requested the geo from them. I will take a look and see what the prices etc of the build will be

Got a reply from the 'Scoom centre
"Sorry for not getting back to you sooner ref to bike polo. We could possibly accommodate you depending on availability .The lady that normally does block bookings is away at the moment but I will be more than happy to help if I can. Please contact me direct or call the centre on the below number, also if you wanted to feel free to come into the centre to have a look at the hall to make sure its suitable."
So, it's positive but there's no mention of prices or anything. Further investigation required I'm afraid.

Why are you having canti mounts added to your frame Rich? Just to keep modding?
Partly :) but mainly because the calipers just arent efficient enough. Ultimately I will buy a new frame but I havent seen anything I like yet. Its likey to be 14 co custom or something like that but that means saving the dollar first. This way I can mod the frame into something more suitable for now. I like the frame, a couple of geo issues but I dont want to get a substitute that I wont be happy with only to get the custom bike later on down the line.
Plus I have wrist pain from the lever, I have finessed the brakes as much as poss but its just not working anymore. All your bikes with V brakes are crazy efficient and I want the stopping power! Pulling those calipers hurts. Also its about the same price as two sets of those bolt on ones anyway, and will work better.

Why not start paying subs when we play? We spoke about it when we were organising the tourney earlier in the year but nothing got sorted. It would be cash in the bank when it comes to hiring a court in the winter. Doesn't need to be much..maybe a quid or two per session each?

I'll be round at about 630ish

I'm not going on no list! I'm not going to Laandaan either. I've got a lot of other [good] shit going on though so not sure when I'll be in any fit state to ride a bicycle safely. Both days are good for me as long as I'm concious and it isn't raining...
