Birmingham Bike Polo Chat & BS Thread

Got some good footage on the camera, even better with a little bit of an angle tweak.

EMM requested it so he could put together a video, so once i have a dvd full of footage which will not take long at all, ill pass it along to him =)

Nice one si.

Nice one bike.

Simon, can you put up that first game when I had it on my head? I want to re-live all four of my wonder-goals...

yeah, just got in from a mega post polo munch fest so due to its size i dont think it will upload due to the size before i retire, so ill get on it tomorrow right after work.

ordering the tubing for our goals tomorrow, lets get the show on the road.

Nice one bike.

Oh no!! You look so happy about it though :)

Nice tee.

Si, do you reckon you could email me the whole thing in a zip file? what size is the file?

or you can chop it up in movie maker into the different games...

Ill pop it on a DVD and bring to polo, bad news on your bike filming, switched off the soab!!

better make up for that at calthorpe.

=(

looking at a gig in size, hence uploading tomorrow, patience mr editor ;)

Whats the deal with food for this 2v2 tournament?

I remember someone mentioning a while ago there was a cafe near by?

I may bring my stove and mess tins fo facilitate hot beverage making.

Whats the deal with food for this 2v2 tournament?

I suggested we do 'beer and snacks' to make it more sociable, but can't really be bothered sorting anything. Shop round the corner for cans of Carling and pringles...

63 percent to Dans 4 goal glory..

boink..camera needs less down angle..but theres you glory mr ski.

=P

fish eye lens would OWN

=)

glad i bought a class 6 micro sd...cost more than the camera fer gawds sake..but worth it i suppose.

Odd how downward-looking it was. Next time mount totally horizontal?

yep, pure experiment..it will get nailed.

Just popped to see the chap at purchasing at work and the aliminium to produce a set of goals for Birmingham should land on Friday.

Next... See the fellow on the tube manipulator with the development drawings and see when the bases will be formed.

Bonza!

Can we have a name for the 2v2 tourney please so i can knock up an e flyer....

Call it what you want if you're making a flyer - bear in mind it's for Brummies only though, as we can't keep the round robin format with too many teams, and it's not really an organised 'tournament', just a bit of fun.

UK Champs - cancelled at the Manchester velodrome. Sounded too good to be true, maybe next year...

If anyone can think of a space where we could hire/install 1-2 courts for 1-3 full days, we could do it.... (Really don't want to try and use Highgate/Calthorpe as they're so preeeecious).

I might have a spot at Merry Hill, will take pics and post tomorrow.
