Birmingham Hardcourt Bike Polo, UK.

Birmingham’s finest, Black Stabbath, make it into the Cambridge press at the UK Champs

Believe it or not, Lucas has (I think) five polo bikes.

This is his latest, and by far his most suitable.  He even chose a stem of reasonable proportions.  I built it up for him and managed to scratch the paint in several places (using a vice to tighten the stupid BMX bottom bracket didn’t help) and left his cables too short, but he seems to like it.

We’re doing a demonstration in the gallery space at the Custard Factory as part of Flatpack’s cycling programme. There’s loads of great films and performances taking palce over the whole weekend. Saturday 30th of March 11am-4pm. Come play polo.

Now in it’s fifth installment (older than our club) this all ladies tournament is a sure to packed full of thrills and spills! Last year’s tournament, held in Lexington USA , saw UK slayer team Tornadoes placed fourth. This year it will be taking place in Barnaby, Canada. More info.

Birmingham Bike Polo will be hosting beginners session so if you’re keen to start or just curious please swing by and give it a go. We will be doing some basics drills and will be providing equipment so all you need is yourself and a bike!
