Cool, but isn't this a repost?

Is it? I just ran a search and didn't see anything. If so, my mistake.

those of us who have been around a while have seen that before, it's reposted, but every year or so. it's right behind those artistic gymnastic cycling girls.

europe has a lot of cool sports that americans don't seem to give a **** about.

It's one of the two classic indoor cycling competitions sanctioned by the UCI.

Cycle Ball and Indoor Cycling can be read about straight from the UCI site:

Of course. They're no going for speed as much as stability and control.

Hah, so true. The fixie I use for bike polo has a flip-flop hub running fixed-fixed with the polo side having a much larger cog.

So you have to carry around an extra chain??

Yep, it's not exactly a heavy or difficult piece of extra equipment to tote...

I ride the bike to the court, flip the rear wheel and swap chains. The master links make this a pretty simple process. It works for me.
