Bicycles in the urban environment. A magazine about urban cycling.
Mr. Do makes some of the finest polo videos out there and this one is no exception, compiled from footage from the 2011 World Championships in Seattle this past September.
Well, nerds gotta get pissed and throw some shit, too.
Why are they wearing helmets?? Good way to fuck up your bike getting all banged around like that. Lame “sport”
@JMN They’re wearing helmets to prevent damage to their bikes. Duh.
@JMN Obviously, they’re riding super light carbon frames and not specially built bikes designed to take this kind of abuse.
Where did these trollish readers hating on hardcourt come from? I though this was urban velo.
Nobody’s making you play polo.
I wish the video had some more good shots/passing plays compared to crashes, but at the speed they play at the worlds it’s hard to track that on film.
dontcoas: mostly they just showed a bunch of nerds getting really upset, usually in slow motion.
How someone get the nerve to call these guys nerds. These the type fellas I want on my team $#!7 going down.
clay- no real offense taken at the nerd jab- polo nerds love polo, and that’s just a good courtside heckle.
It’s JMN that actually pissed me off, calling it a lame sport (by that standard downhill racing, hockey, and just about anything else is lame too…)
bike polo is far less nerdy than doing bmx tricks on track bikes (usually in slow motion…)
