Also, Memphis is in Tennessee, which is in the South. If all you need to move is a crumbling city, sweltering summers, a shitty economy, and bike polo, come on up to St Louis.

You forgot Budweiser, hyper-localized pseudo-Italian food that no one else likes, unfortunate infrastructure issues and Georgia Frontiere.
SUCK TOWN POLO
But there is also localized food loved by all, namely gooey butter cake and st paul sandwiches.
Don't forget toasted ravioli...and Drew, have you ever been to The Hill? That shit's authentic, dude.
Midwest is best!!
Oh really? If I brought you a detailed map of Italy, could you point to the Provel region?
The Hill is 100% Italian-American. All the sauce and portion size, none of the fresh ingredients.

bike polo hotline
Call Midtown Bike at 901.726.4511 and ask for Denis. He is good friends with cort, the guy who does that fixed memphis blog. Denis told me that they have been getting games together behind the peddler bike shop on highland at night, but I don't know what night. Also, give him shit for being the guy who shut down the Memphis airport last month with the "this bike is a pipe bomb" sticker on his bike.
yeah yeah i needed to happen
and im pretty stoked to have a new roster to play with

it's a long shot that memphis will check the forum, but it can't hurt.
there are a couple of cyclists who were touring from minneapolis to new orleans, and they were in an accident with a runaway trailer. their bikes are trashed and one has a broken leg, they are basically fucked and stranded in memphis. if there is anybody who can help out in any way, i'll put you in contact with them.
thanks!
Columbia, MO
i stayed up there for a couple months
i found them! one guy is on here (fixmemphis)
he is coming down for NOLA tourney with a couple others!
thanks though
