Old Polo Thread

Im in for tomorrow, but i regret to say i can't drink, got a big presentation in on Monday and i don't think Sambuca will help em understand the history of the Chinese communist party's propaganda campaigns...

is it happening today then, dosnt seem like we have many people :-/

no, it blatantly is happening. it has to cause there's a trophy. (or there will be when someone donates some old cogs/sprockets/chainrings to finish it)

reckon we need 1 more for a tourney. 4 teams of 2, would make 6 games = about an hour and a half, then normal throw ins?

Yo sorry guys, i think i'm out for today. I've only just woken up, fucking exhausted after 2 long night shifts, plus my spanner is at BikeHaúse, so i have no way of fixing my bike
really sorry guys, just too fucking knakered

right, 6 people so no tourney-ness. meet 5 oclock ncp or 4 at sb. see people then. please be on time cause there's maybe only 6 of us. cheers, H. x

3 floors of emptiness - ya bunch of loved-up slackers... ;-)

apologies guys, am feeling really ill (not self induced either) have been struggling on and off for a week now

What nights do you lot play? and do you have room for another begginer? I may as well put the pointless fixed mountain bike I built to some use seeing as it's almost to heavy to bunnyhop so no good for tricks!

Thats fine, we normally start 7.30ish, play till 10 or so, sorta changes week on week

Long shot, but does any of the polo crowd have a shock pump? Needing to get use of a wee low-pressure one for my old 'zocchi MXC's but mine is in Edinburgh.

is anyone up for polo biking critical mass? not cause we really need new players at the moment, just think it'd be entertaining to get a load of us out on em...

I'll have a look Colin, think I've lent it out a while ago but not had it back tho

i dont geddit hannah...

i am sorta down for it

chucklebruv - you don't get the point or i'm not making sense?

Critical mass + polo bikes = curious people. Therefore you get to have lots of random conversations with people about polo, and hopefully get people a bit interested. If we're lucky we might get a new player or two out of it, n if we're not (more likely), at least you have a good excuse to talk to any interesting people you see on critical mass n more people have heard of polo so we can recruit them later. oh, n polo bikes go about the right speed for critical mass and are good for riding later when drunk...

on re-reading my earlier post though, i suspect it was just that i wasn't making sense. 's all a bit vague as to who or what's gonna be getting out on who or what else. sorry bout that.

we did do crit mass on polo bikes last year when we gave out loads of come play polo flyers, didnt get any new people but would be worth doing again anyway, il modify the flyers with the new times etc

look see, me on polo bike :

looks like we're gonna have to find quite a lot of floor space for the tourney, got almost 40 teams, could mean housing 120 people! haha! gonna be well fun

Ste, i'm a critical mass recruit, so it did sorta work. Nice one for doing the flyers too. finding housing for 120's gonna be madness, but doable i reckon. Londoners can sleep standing up, right?
