Bike, mallets and a ball: Bike Polo is good time
September 2nd, 2010
by: Susan Jurgelski
Six mallet-wielding cyclists square off three-on-three, ready to go wheel-to-wheel on a sun-baked city tennis court.
There’s an anticipatory tension as thick as the sultry, summer evening humidity and the hypnotic hum of cicadas.
These bicyclists are geared up.
When a red rubber ball [...]

Ha! Yeah sweet moves, eh? Been working on those for a while…
My favourite out of this set is the one where Krem(l)in is poke-checking El Gigante a -long- way between his wheels… Gigante has a look on his face that indicates he can’t believe what’s happening… and I can’t either! Fuckin’ rad!
The first crash photo with the taco’d front wheel is choice, too. Good work Doug! These are way awesome.
