  Dibs!!!

• NE London Bike Polo: Wednesdays: Mitchison Road N1 / Weekends:Hackney Downs E5

  in Bike Polo • 3 years, 7 months

  

  It has been a while since i've been anywhere near a polo court, i am well out of the loop.
  Would a group of beginners be welcome at HDowns/Mitch? A few of the women from Velociposse mentioned some interest in giving polo a go. I guess no body rides on brakeless track bikes anymore? So may need to borrow a few bikes and mallets.

• Chris King R45 (black, ceramic bearings, 11spd) on H-Plus Son Archetype rims (black), 32H Fr/32H Rr

  in Components, clothing and miscellany • 4 years

  

  Description matches the condition.
  Rims wear and get damaged. All part of buying s/h.

  Plus. Refunds? Its an online community. Not Ribble.

  Seems fishy that you decide you no longer need them and wish to sell on. Only to then demand a refund 3 days later.

  Apart from cold.. what was the weather like? I was put off by the wind and sideways showers in Hackney. Of course once i decided not to come, it eased off. The idea of getting there wet and then racing cold didn't really appeal to me.

• Lee Valley VeloPark - taster sessions!

  in Track Cycling and Velodromes • 4 years, 8 months

  

  Look Keo pedals are used on the bikes.. compatible exustar would probably be ok but that lies with you.

  Shoes with Look Keo cleats are available to hire. Or toe clip adaptors can be used. Would always recommend going clip less for a better experience.

• Bike storage at Lee Valley Velodrome

  in Track Cycling and Velodromes • 5 years, 1 month

  

  Unfortunately storage can't be swapped between users. Doesn't help you now, but see if you can get on the waiting list. 16 brand new slots came up just the other week (which were filled within a couple of days).
