London Fixed Gear and Single-Speed is a community of predominantly fixed gear and single-speed cyclists in and around London, UK.
This site is supported almost exclusively by donations. Please consider donating a small amount regularly.
Come Play Polo!
Beginners' sessions happen on the first Monday of every month at 7:30pm in Newington Gardens, SE1
Bike polo is a co-ed sport where men and women play together on teams of three.
Originating in the States, bike polo is a global community consisting of tight knit local clubs.
Basic Rules:
Goals have to be scored with the round end of the mallet
If you put your foot down, you must tap back in at the middle of the court
First team to score 5 points win
Other than, just have fun and come hang out. The best way to get involved is to get stuck into games. We can give you information about what equipment to use, but we advise just coming along to some of our ‘throw in’ sessions where people will be happy to lend you a bike and a mallet.
