actually the article is pretty accurate, from what i can tell. i've not been to the brick lane courts but am a regular at peckham.
is bike polo for the masses, i guess is what i'm asking?

yeah so timeout did a cycling issue this week. basically it's the usual garbage (a race between bike, car, ped, bus around london, a very odd point/counterpoint piece about cycling in london, bike buying guides, etc) but near the back there's a writeup about polo/rollapaluza.
this combined with the radio interviewer at peckham polo tonight... it's a media explosion!
time to find something new to do?

awesome shot of arrospok though...

got one of those too skoota ;)

yeah sparky i've got one of the short park tools pedal spanners with me, not really ideal but it'll do the trick.

5th floor of the carpark

surely once he gets to the carpark he can just follow the sounds of your screams...

Peta: Peckham Car Park, 95a Rye Lane, London, SE15 4ST (ish)

i should be by tonight folks

edit: too late

at my local lidl it's a set of 2 walking poles for £15. i think they're 'carbon' so not sure if they'll be up for the rigours of polo...

.

it's a pretty close match!? :)

this guy?
i am pretty shit with names. mikec?

Yes, I was there

hmmm? either i missed you or your online personality is much different than your face-to-face personality.

yes RPM, I was just going to post this.
I turned up with a mate from work (who hadn't been inducted) and met illy and fruitbat there. since there were three wanting to ride they very nicely decided to run a short induction for them.
Not sure whether they'd do it for a smaller/bigger group on future mondays.
for those of you on the fence about this i really recommend getting out there and trying it. it's awesome fun.

nice to meet new faces last night. sorry i had to dodge abruptly. see you all next week.
no sign of mr. assfucking, unfortunately.

fruitbat - see RPM's post earlier on the page. inductions at 530 apparently.

teen - yes i'd like to take a gander if you please.
I'm planning on being at the velodrome at 530 tonight. looks pretty decent here (epsom) just now, nice big blue patches of sky - is it darker in town?

dunno BRM. depends on whether herne hill is on or not.

current weather looks nice though! hopefully this is on as I woke up extra early today to take part. fingers crossed.

any news on the marathon runner who was on the ride (can't remember your name.. Phil is it?)
he found out he was going to run once we made it to the pub in Southend...

going to go to Herne Hill for 6pm, then will stop by trinity on the way home.
BRM, i've got your chainring bolt wrench thingy to return if you'll be there.

good times, good to see you again and meet new faces. especially ed. :)

oops, turns out that illy can't make the ride so there's still one spot open for http://whitehorsechallenge.com/

anyone? PM me

they live out near farnborough, but i work with them so see them daily. anyway i'll just collect them and drop them at one of the drinks sessions this week.

yep hippy and illy, the spots are yours if you want them. I think i have to talk to the organizers to officially swap you around. I think the packs (ie numbers) were sent out this week, so i may have to collect them for you and bring them on the day.
going to southend today but i'll check my email when we're back

ooh what a lovely morning. see you all soon.

Myself and 4 mates signed up for the White Horse Challenge (100 mile circuit around Swindon on sunday, 27 april)

Two of them have bailed out, so there's 2 spots available if anyone is keen. I think the list is full at 550 riders, £20 entry. PM me for details.
