Hi, sorry to post this in here, only just registered so I can't start a thread.
I was cycled past the court on Downham Road last night, and I sat and watched a load of people playing bike polo there.
I have the feeling that some of those people were from this forum. Were you playing last night?
It looks like a great sport, I would love to try it at some point. You lot looked pretty professional though, it looked quite brutal, would a beginner be welcome?
I've only just got into single speed bikes, and my one is only a month old, so I don't want to wreck it. What do I need in terms of equipment for bike polo, obviously a bike, and I guess the mallet. Where can I get either of those, and how much would I expect to have to pay?
Thanks.
Oh and finally how often do you play at Downham road, I only live just round the corner...
