Modern polo is played on hardcourts and is quite a lot more physical. It's good fun</p> <p>We've been playing around 3 yearsin Edinburgh and have witnessed it absolutely explode in this country.</p> <p>We're having a knockabout tonight if you're interested.<br /> <a href="http://www.Edinburghbikepolo.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.Edinburghbikepolo.com</a></p> <p>Colin </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=7889#post-79531 Thu, 26 Jul 2012 12:08:17 +0000 amir 79531@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Couldn't see the video where I am today. According to wikipedia, cycle polo was invented in Ireland in 1891. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=7889#post-79529 Thu, 26 Jul 2012 12:05:34 +0000 amir 79529@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-latin-america-18977476">Bike polo in Argentina</a> </p>
