Welcome to the DragonDrome - Herne Hill Velodrome bike polo Planning and Discussion

Sorry lads I'm in out in the Excel.

Morning,

Whats the deal with the court then? I am visiting a sick friend in Woolwich tomorrow so wont be able to chip in with a fixing, but can bring tools on Sunday...

Are people on for Sunday? Can I fire up a list?

Weather is better for saturday though…

I'm not in town over the weekend :(

We have to do this tomorrow, guys, I've already had concerns raised about the boards being scattered all over the MUGA and the kids not being able to use the space...

We have to get our fingers out, if you're a regular you really should be down there tomorrow to help... I think we'll need at least five people...

Forgot the list...

Oh yeah, 11am start?

Shouldn't take us long but we're gonna need as many bodies as possible to get the boards up while we secure them to the uprights, they'll be wet and very heavy...

I'll be down there a bit earlier to try and figure out a plan of action...

I'll also be bringing Aidan's card for anyone wanting to sign it

I thought you could use the sleepers without cutting them. Then they will rest across a few of the boards together. Dont cut them if you can help it. The ripple effect you are getting and that is tearing the boards down is partly due to the separate weights of the braces / sandbags not being stitched together. If that weight can be spread evenly through the braces it should be stronger. I hope this makes sense. Lay them inside the triangle of the brace and through as many as possible.

I'm almost certainly in tomorrow, but I'll have Logan in tow so not sure if I'll be very good at counting towards the seven you need!

I'll try and come down between jobs (2-4 ish if you think you will still be there then?

Yep B sand bags always been inside the triagle but wind was so strong by the way il may be a bit late scandinavians girls still want to drink some more shot hah

On my way shortly, a little the worse for wear...

Could someone being a claw hammer? Mine's lost somewhere...

Do we need mallet and a polo bike for today ?

on my way (not on polo bike)

Ok

We need lots of bodies, there's a lot of work to do...

Please, please, please come down and help... Only three of us here at the moment...

how's the repair going?

do we have a quorum for tomorrow?

Amazing job! We would've been finished today if our drills hadn't run out of juice... An hours work in the morning and we'll be ready to go...

Really, really amazing... Massive job, we pretty much rebuilt half the court... Huge thank you to everyone and special thanks to Hops for doing a tuck shop run... xxx

Let's play polo!

I'll be there very early (prob around 9-9.30am) to get the final bits done, any help appreciated... We have the court 'til 2pm...

it's 8pm now, it's just me and Joe for 10am tomorrow so far, do we have five more?

Turn up and see, Kev... beagle smiley
