Portland Maine Bike Polo

Seth

Hi all- I'm up to play if people are interested. I've also got a couple of spare mallets and an extra bike I can bring if any beginners want to try it out. Anyone thought of good locations in the portland area?

The word on the proverbial street is that Maine is a cornicopia of cycling for roadies and mountain bikers. Does the same hold true for bike polo?

A facebook group was started recently by another polo player interested in starting a game in portland: 'Maine Bike Polo'....

I stopped by the Gorham Bike Shop on congress st in portland and they mentioned there had been fliers for bike polo as recently as last year. Supposedly people played on the tennis courts by the highway at Deering Oaks. Hopefully we'll end up w/ a mass of people on one forum or another and we can start coordinating days to play.

Seth,
Thanks for the update.

I've asked to join the group on Facebook. Hopefully we can get at least six people and make a strong presence where interest will snowball. I'll be up in Maine in the middle of June, hopefully.

Portland Bike Polo'ers! Things are maybe kind-of almost starting to get off the ground! Anyone interested, we're having a first get together next saturday, the 25th, at 10 am. Time is not confirmed yet, but check out the facebook group "Maine Bike Polo" to track the conversation. Current thought is the tennis courts @ deering oaks park, as this is where supposedly people have played in the past, but this is also not definite. If anyone has better ideas, throw em out there. There will be extra mallets and loaner bikes, so come check it out even if you've never played before!
