I found a flyer on Facebook for Giulio’s birthday polo thing. So it’s a tournament…

My friend Giulio from Amsterdam is having his birthday this Saturday, and he wants to play some indoor polo. I can’t make it due to family business, but if you wanna go, get in touch with him.

Damn this clip wants to make play bike polo again. Damn cool edit!

Thanks to Prolly!

Because we are really nice guys I ripped a movie from one of our national television channels. So it is in Dutch but I did it specially for our Dutch and Japanese polo friends (who we love)! Ik zeg Schilham kom er maar in:

One of the first times I played bike polo was in NY and we played on a rooftop, in the middle of the night and completely drunk. This picture reminded me of that and it’s a wonder that I even remember it (due to to alcohol consumption).

According to the Volume blog, this bike features: Full heat treated CRMO frame, fork and bar, EBB, fixed dropout, Shimano 8-spd. Alfine hub, Tektro Auriga Pro hydraulic brakes, 700X45c Resist tires, and much more.
Since the disc brakes are on the left side of the bike, they don’t get damaged by playing polo (if you’re a right handed polo player), and the 8 speed hub means you can ride light when playing polo, but still can ride a decent gearing when riding to or from the court. 
I don’t give a damn anymore about polo, but since FUCCIT started as a polo club, and I guess a lot of our readers still like polo, this is the second (positive) polo related post in ages. Enjoy it, coz the changes there will be another one soon are slim to none…

So let me show you the first two clips that came from Polo Motion at the Bike Motion trade show!

There seems to be a BIG bike polo tournament going on here in the Netherlands. That’s strange because we (fuccit) didn’t know about it. And let me tell you why I think this is strange. We as FUCCIT where the first bike polo players in Holland and we tried to spread the word through Holland. In the beginning Vincent and myself where bringing our polo gear (dozen of mallets and a couple of balls) to every alleycat we could find. People picked it up and right now bike polo is played in every major city here. But where the FUCC do we stand?

We didn’t get an e-mail or a phonecall if we would play or post a note on this website, no we got shit!

About two years ago we where asked if we would be interested in a sponsorship with Cinelli (by a man, lets call him WS). Of course we where interested, we would get some free frames and it is cool to have Cinelli backing you up. We also made some advertising boards around our mobile polo court (which we moved around Holland a lot, mostly for peanuts). And what did we got from it, fuccing nothing!

This is not to fucc Cinelli because they probably didn’t know about this shit. But Mr WS did and about a year ago he asked us if we could organize a bike polo tournament during the Bike Motion (the second biggest bicycle trade fair in Europe). Whooo, cool we said and Vincent started the arrangements but suddenly the contact stopped. And now one day before the tournament I find out there is a tournament during Bike Motion…….
What the fucc! And who is organizing the shit? Well our ‘friends’ from EHVFXD apparently. Strange because they know who we are, they got our e-mail addresses and even our phone numbers but we didn’t hear shit. It gets even better, the first time these guys played polo was on our bikes and with our mallets. And we had to force them to play. And now? Not even a message…

Yes I got a small dick but it still feels like someone stepped on it.

So if you wanna see some polo this weekend in Holland go to the Bike Motion for Polo Motion and say hi from me.

FUCC IT!

Feeling bored? You can hop in your car and go to Antwerp and play polo today!

It’s almost time for the WHBPC 2010!
