New London Polo Courts + Lights

I doubt there is beer in your piss, Gabes. Likely Cider. In which case, maybe you'll lure Rik back.

I have drunk nothing but beer all week.

Yesssssssss! The hackney downs court is so near my house! Me and Jo also checked it out the other day and it looks fooking gorgeous.

let's try it today?

They aren't ready yet, there are still building works going on, but hopefully in a few weeks.

^ this. And apparently the warden is awesome. Told us we could store our cones by his office which is locked at night so they don't go missing. If we can get a couple of planks to block out the goal (like we used to do at Newington), we may be able to store them as well.

sounding like a great league court

This is a popular location for Cycle Training. I've had a few sessions there at weekends and it's never been full, especially at 9 in the morning. In fact I will be there all day next Sunday. Never had any sense of anyone hanging around likely to cause trouble/looking to nick stuff but this was daylight hours at the weekend.

That's where I had mine with Paul Francis, that's how I saw them building it in the first place.

Someone taught you to ride that badly ??!!

Also used by the London School of Cycling. :)

Has this court been investigated? It's just off Clerkenwell Road.

It has a bit of a curved surface, but that would help rain run-off. Metal goals not in ideal position and a couple of basketball posts. No worse that Broadway Market I guess.

It had lights but as you can see it was daytime when I passed so don't know if functional.
