Care for a bit of polo old chap?
Posted by Jimmy under Events
Tomorrow night’s Polo Party has seriously snowballed into something very strange… and awesome. Word has it that players are descending on this fare city of ours from 6 cities, maybe more. All this for a night of bike polo in a cold, dirty parking garage. This is just another testament to the community built up around this bicycle contraption.
The weather forecast is looking like rain and snow, but we’re still planning on meeting up for the rides. We’ll just see what happens from there. At the moment there is discussion of two games, one upstairs and another down. One of these may possibly be aimed at beginners as we have a lot of first time players from the Louisville area expressing interest. If you’re coming in from out of town and this will be your fist time playing with us here in Louisville, don’t take it personally if we’re a little touchy out on the court. Now I don’t mean we’re gonna be rubbing on your ass, unless you’re okay with that of course, but I suppose it’s been an issue in the past as we’re a bit contact heavy in the game. If something happens you don’t like, lets discuss it, no need to get pushy. Plus, we drink a lot… okay, when I say we, I mean me. Although there are a handful that seriously enjoy the libations. Keep that in mind too. After all, our bars are open til 4am. What would you expect?
If you’re skipping the rides and just heading straight to the garage, you’re looking for 416 West Chestnut Street, between 4th and 5th Streets, across from the strip clubs. We like to keep it classy.

I’m going to be bringing my Specialized polo bike tonight, and leaving it for someone to have. A polo bike donation per se! Surely someone there will want a bike of their own, right?
