bike polo fixed gear

Couple of great things about this, bike polo is awesome, the bike’s freaky eye motif, the bike polo on a fixed gear, and the fact that he uses the term sawbuck. I wonder if the ease of track stand with the fixed gear gives some kind of advantage in bike polo.

not this guys bike but it’s a bike polo video for those who haven’t seen it before:

    Duh, weren’t you there in 2002 when I obtained the official rules of bike polo along with a demonstration video? Well, we had them but I dont’ think that we ever tried to play since none of us had cross bikes at the time (which is the recommended type of bike).

    I was there and I remember how our attempts to get people together failed miserably so I assumed that everyone else’s attempts failed too thereby killing the sport forever. But looks like I was wrong.

    We should think about replacing croquet with bike polo at the next ride.

    indeed. i, for one, definately need a new bike that i will only use 2 times a year. i already have 1 that i use 1 time a year and one that i use 0 times a year.

    no, seriously, i think it would be fun. in a bleeding from the elbows sort of way.
