Alright, Sunday's forecast is for a high of 40, partly cloudy, and (thankfully, if you played last week) mild wind.
So where do we want to play polo? Hardcourt at Masterson Station or grass.
If grass, has anyone checked out the field at Woodland Park? If it is in need of a prolonged recovery where else should we play? I missed the day we played at the softball field, but would that work?
Lets hear from everyone and get in an awesome day of polo.

I'd be up for Masterson again... that was fast and fun as hell last Sunday - despite the monster winds.

I plan on making some hardcourt mallets this evening (I scored some black ABS from Frankfort - you can't find the shit in Lexington)... so if all goes well, we'll have some light, rugged mallets for the hard game.

wherever we play, I definitely think we need to give the regular Woodland field a break for a good while... but I'd also be up for trying an alternate grass pitch too.

the trip out there isn't bad if you can carpool with someone who has room for bikes...

I'm down with Masterson Station. Unless a bunch of people object lets plan on polo at 2:00 at Masterson Station. I'll pick up the bag! Call your non forum participating chump friends and let 'em know.

I will be heading out to masterson a little before 2 and I will have room for 2 bikes (plus mine) and a couple people if anyone needs a ride. I will be leaving from the Wildcat Wheels Shop. Give me a call if you want to carpool. Shane 513-582-8014. POLO!

Does anybody have a cartridge bb removal tool? I need to borrow one for a polo bike tune up.

I'm down as soon as I put the drive train back together on my 70. Waiting on a sprocket that's been on backorder half the winter.

where are you ordering from? anyone going to the bourbon bandits moped rally in april?

Nod at Fayette Moped ordered it for me a while back, but to be honest I haven't talked to him in two months to find out what's up. Its probably sitting in a box in his office and he's forgotten its there.

"Its on backorder" is code for "Logan's a lazy bastard".

Don't know if the Bandits would accept my ride. Its a Honda C70, kind of in limbo between moped/scooter/motorcycle.

We need a moped thread not in the polo subforum.
