So, anyone got really small barrel adjusters for these here fancy dual lever conversion kits? I must be praying to the wrong God of Polo or something coz this is getting quite unreasonable! It has holes slightly wider than M6 though I doubt as wide as M8 (I've never heard of M7) - the barrel adjusters on the levers I have are MASSIVE compared to these :-(

On a slightly different note:

We need some kind of MHBP shop. I've been thinking this for some time. Not-for-profit but add 10-20% to go back into the kitty. Something for the Committee to discuss...

I have some little ones but they where too small for mine so just went to a shop and got a couple for £1 took a while for them to find the correct size.

I'm gonna be drilling Drew

's lever tomorrow and building his wheel, if I do it early enough I'll come drop them off in the day, so they'll be levers and shit hanging around somewhere.

I'm going to have to move house to avoid these advances.

Hi Manchester, we're having a little one day Newcastle v Glasgow v Edinburgh tournament in a couple of weeks. Do any of you fancy coming up to make it a northern four-way?

Details here: http://www.facebook.com/events/318202554903467/

Let me know if you can make it :)

I would be forced to go home if I went to this.

Might be a bit awkward with other touneys happening but if transport is arrangeable I'd be up for a day trip, trains are about £46 to arrive at 1000 and leave at 1845. Car might be better.

I've been trying to force you to go home for weeks.

No you've been trying to force your way into my home for ages.

You're going to have to accept we're not going to happen.

One day, Drew, one day.

Newcastle's less than 160 miles rather than the 200 miles to Bristol, Cardiff, London or Cambridge... I can only take one other person in my car with the bikes in the back but it works out at about £25 per person. With a bike rack it's 3 passengers at £15 each.

Don't have a Faccebook account - what date is that? Would like to try given I can't make Cambridge and prolly not the June one either. Will bring Dadmobile.

If you do get a chance and snotwot could you post it through my door and I'll try to have it fitted by game tonight. Gaffa tape, innit.

Would have loved to do this but am away that weekend - next time guys!

Don't have a Faccebook account - what date is that?

Saturday March 17th, 11am - 6pm, plus about 3.5h travelling time each way.

If you and I drive that's two teams in reasonable comfort.

The problem I may have is that it's 2 weekends in a row, although as a day trip it's more do-able.

Hi there,

Sunday games were really cool! Thanks for the bikes and mallets!

I'll come around today to the court to watch you training with a beer, and if you need one person else to play I'll be ready!

Also I might be interested in going to Newcastle v Glasgow v Edinburgh tournament if there are enough people to do a team and the trip is not very expensive.

Awesome, see you later.

Also euro spots are allocated, UK gets 7 and then 3 for the wildcard (not very wild) Going to be tough to qualify for either. Really gonna have to make an effort to learn from the good teams we play at the NS tourneys before the qualifier is arranged.

That's OK I'm sure we'll teach you something at Bristol if we play you.

If you teach him the concept of sobriety I'll be truly impressed.

I understand the concept, I just disagree with it on moral grounds.

Kev next door was asking how you were doing yesterday. I just told him 'Pissed, with occasional outbreaks of bike polo'. He muttered something about still qualified to work there.
