And the rules say .....intentional ramming or t-boning and unsportsmanlike play is seriously fuckin frowned upon.

If I was reffing I'd have called a no goal for the intentional ram. No attempt was made to play the ball and the offensive player intentionally rammed the defensive player to gain an advantage for his team. Might be contentious but it's not in the spirit of the game we play here.

But as I wasn't reffing I'd have to say I concur with Max, it was pretty awesome!

Dave, I'm checking out that Gipiemme tomorrow and will 99% take it. Go for this one mate before it slips away.

Well done Jonny.

Think this will be me - http://www.beardteamusa.org/categories/sideburns.html

Not a fan then miro_o ......

Any other suggestions for the facial hair ??

My full beard's looking nice and bushy and was thinking of the bernards with a tache combo ftw, but am open to suggestions.

Me too Dave, just pm'd about it.

Dammit, too busy playing polo and I've missed both of Zoo and Sol.

Ha, apologies Mr Poro sir.

Trying to get him down to £180 .....

Think he meant me -

Yay !!!

I'm looking at a lo pro frame at the moment so it'll be good to have a gander at yours.

Rik,

bring the lo pro by and show off ........

i will play... i am a girl. anyone need a team mate?

(but if you are doing the kissing rule, can you please post a photo with a short description of yourself inc hobbies & life goals)

I might need a team mate - come down to polo tonight or Thursday so I can check you out ......

For polo skills , obviously.

Anyone got any good suggestions for some white/off white calf length gent socks? Got told to go selfridges / harrods but think that's gonna be a bit over budget!

Went to Sports Direct - Plum coloured footie socks for £2 a pair !!

Cheers guys. I need to find me a team mate in that case.

Is this gonna be Saturday or Sunday now ?

The only 2 drummers that count -

YouTube - Animal vs Buddy Rich

you guys ever played a resonator?????????!!!

Premier, right ?

I had a Projector for years and it was ace, bit too jazz/funk in the end though. Cried a bit when I finally sold it.

The Resonators could really kick some arse and had great tones for a big kit. Found them a bit too big though.

heye dude. can you keep shhh about the drummer hunt for now? thanks!

Ha. Only if I get to audition. The boys would love that !!

lockett, you back in?

I found a better bike for you, one you can't fall off!

Ha. Stick some wheel covers on and it's got polo written all over it.

I'm in for tomorrow.

Vintage all the way. A decent kit will age nicely if it's kept well and the sound definitely improves with age, something you don't get unless you go for top end newer stuff like Orange County.

I play a late 60's UK Rogers which is the best sounding kit I've ever played. I had it refinished in blue oyster pearl wrap and have standard 22, 16, 12 sizing. All hardware is new and a mix of Pearl and DW.

I use either a 1950's Ludwig Mahogany snare if I want something light and snappy, or a converted Premier marching snare in green sparkle finish, tuned really tight so it's got an amazing deep, tight crack to it. That baby's 9 inches deep ......

Cymbals are 13" Sabian HH EQ Hats, 16" Alchemy Sweet Crash, 16" Zildjian A Custom Crash and a juicy 20" Sabian Medium Flange Ride from the 70's.

Has taken me 20 years to get that lot together and I love it all.

If it was £175 then I'd snap it up.

When I put this up on the forum in the Summer I was looking for £225-250 for the frame, fork and front wheel, I know this is a lot, but it's a nice frame and I paid more than this. On the other hand I'm realistic and realise it's unrealistic I'm going to get this for it, so ball park I was thinking £200ish. What do you think?

Max, can you put me aside some 165 square taper cranks if you have any ?

Cheers

I recently Knocked these up, haven't had a chance to test them out yet, but they certainly won't cut your foot in two, they're hella beefy. Just need some washers yet to strengthen the holes a little, although it's pretty damn strong seat belt with holes melted through to seal the fibres.

These are pretty much what I've just added to the polo bike, except I went for leather.

I found that using a little bit extra length meant I could bolt through both the holes you usually use for the cages, on both sides of the pedal (4 bolts per pedal), for extra strength.

Have had no problems so far and I've been really going for it at polo.

I'll try and post pics sometime.

andy what are you planing?
what frame?

The next polo bike !!!

Not really. I've got to get a nice wheelset for my Eddie Mercx frame, on the lookout for something tasty and white to offset the blue frame.
