21. Khendron - Web Site, Wine, And Other Diversions - Bicycle Polo: Biking With Weap bicycle polo is exactly what it sounds like. It is just like polo, but played on bicycles instead of horses. I am using the term “just like” here rather http://www.khendron.com/content/view/28/34/

Home Wine Web Sites Other Diversions ... Links Bicycle Polo: Biking with Weapons Sunday, 10 September 2006 I make an effort to keep active in the summer. I don't particularly want to be active. I am not one of those people who is happy only when running 5 miles a day (rain or shine) and climbs a mountain every weekend. My instinct is to relax and enjoy those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer, just kicking back with soda and pretzels and beer (or preferably, wine). But this lifestyle eventually leads to boredom, weight gain, and a phone call from your doctor informing you of your high cholesterol blood test result. So I make an effort to keep active. I don't like exercise for the sake of exercise. Jogging and lifting weights, for example, is not my thing. I prefer purpose to my exercise, even if that purpose is only to keep me entertained. So I tend to gravitate towards sports and combining exercise with commuting. I try to bike to work at least once a week. During lunch on Thursdays I play ultimate. On Friday's it's soccer and on the weekends I go sailing. On Mondays and Wednesdays, however, I do something decidedly different. I play bicycle polo.

Thursday, September 20, 2007 Urban Bike Polo I really thought I was witnessing something relatively new, probably developed in NYC. An urban styled twist on a classic sport. But as it turns out, Bike Polo, Cycle Polo or Bicycle Polo has been around since the late 1800s. Itwas invented in Ireland in 1891 by Richard J.Mecredy and played as early as 1900 by the British army and the Indian Maharajas. It is a relatively formalized sport, played on a court (typically grass) with various rules and regulations governing play and equipment. This is the sober, suburban version - click here for the U.S. Bicycle Polo Association.

One member played on Team Canada, winners of the world championship at the 5th International Bicycle Polo Tournament in Paris. We are hosting the 8th International in 2006, dates to be announced soon. Contact: Jerry Tagestad News and Info U.S. Wins First Title at 7th International The United States won its first World Bicycle Polo Championship August 3-7 in Vancouver, B.C., Canada, defeating France (7-4), India (12-8), California (16-2), and Canada (4-2). France took the silver medal with wins over Canada (6-4), California (19-0), and India (6-3). India earned the bronze with victories over Canada (13-8) and California (26-1). Play began August 3 with a match between the two countries that, between them, had won all six of the previous world championships: Canada and India. India had won the first four tournaments and taken the bronze in 2002, but opted to skip last year's event. Canada had taken the title in 2002 and 2003, and hoped to defend with all five of their usual players returning. India showed that they were loaded for bear by running up a 6-0 lead in the second chukker on their way to a 13-8 victory. New team member Sohan Lal showed that he would be a force to be reckoned with by outscoring the entire Canadian team with nine goals. Geoff Nielsen led Canada with fivestory continued

30. Bicycle Polo: Go Slowly, But Carry Big Stick - The Boston Globe I ve done every type of bicycling there is, says James Norton as he picks up a makeshift mallet and gets ready to ride into a street hockey court. http://www.boston.com/news/local/articles/2007/07/15/bicycle_polo_go_slowly_but_

Today's Globe Local Politics Opinion ... Local city games Bicycle polo: Go slowly, but carry big stick July 15, 2007 "I've done every type of bicycling there is," says James Norton as he picks up a makeshift mallet and gets ready to ride into a street hockey court. "Mountain biking. BMXing. Unicycling. I've been a bike messenger. I own a bike store. And this is the most fun of all of them, because it encompasses all of them." Norton smiles his jack-o'-lantern smile, revealing plenty of open real estate where his teeth used to be. "And payback is faster," he says. Closer to hockey than its equestrian namesake, bicycle polo has become the sport of choice for the city's bike messenger crowd, an urban gladiator game for the DLWW-tattoo set (i.e., Don't Let Work Win). "It's basically a bunch of dudes who get together and beat the [expletive] out of each other," says Scott Horrigan, a 21-year-old bike messenger who lives in Allston. "It's really just hockey on bikes; it can be rough." Here's how the game works: Three bicyclists line up at either end of the court, with a plastic street-hockey ball sitting alone at center court. Someone yells "Go!" and then it's a race for the ball. Using handmade mallets golf-club shafts jerry-rigged with a PVC pipe on the end or metal pipes with wooden blocks for a mallet head the players try to bat the ball between a pair of cones set up as goals. If a rider's foot touches the ground, he (most players are male) must ride back to center court and touch the boards with his mallet before he can resume play.

As this story in the L.A.Times reports, it's hard to say exactly how many Americans play bicycle polo, but it is certainly a lot fewer than the 10,000 maniacs who belong to the Cycle Polo Federation of India. This tempting story looks at one team that travels from Baltimore to Philadelphia to Virginia for weekend games, and quotes the Baltimore stockbroker who founded the Mount Washington Bicycle Polo Association explaining that "There's a perception that it's dangerous, but the reality is that it's a very safe sport."

39. Mt. Washington Bicycle Polo Welcome to the new and betterthan-ever home of the Mt. Washington bicycle polo Association. We play pickup bike polo every Sunday afternoon. http://www.mwbpa.blogspot.com/

@import url("http://www.blogger.com/css/blog_controls.css"); @import url("http://www.blogger.com/dyn-css/authorization.css?targetBlogID=33821567"); Mt. Washington Bicycle Polo Baltimore's MWBPA plays pickup bike polo every Sunday afternoon. This blog will keep you informed and hopefully get you off the couch and onto the field. Sunday, December 23, 2007 2007, the Year in Polo Well, it's yet another rainy Sunday with no polo being played in Baltimore. Which sucks. It was a great year. We had a lot of new players come out, and had some great games. Those of us that ventured to Pennsylvania and South Carolina for tournaments had a great time. The end of this season also marks the departure of John Sharpe who has moved to Minnesota for the balmy temps and affordable ocean-front properties. Meanwhile, the main field at Northwest Park has been aerated and re-seeded. With any luck it will be in fine shape for the spring season. In the meantime, if we get a decent and unseasonable Sunday, we will try to throw together a game. Otherwise, look for us to start again in Mid-March. Dayling Savings Time kicks in on March 9, 2008. That would be the perfect day for polo. Say four o'clock? See you then. posted by Aaron Meisner at 6:26 PM 0 comments Monday, September 18, 2006
