The Berlin Bike Polo Worlds just finished, most of us didn’t had enough time to come down back to reality and heal the wounds: the London Open 2010 was already on the horizon, just a few days after.
Many teams decided to go directly from Berlin to London… I told you Bike Polo was same as drug !

We all met for the registration at “Look Mum No Hands” on friday evening, and after a short night, the 150 players joined at the Newington Gardens to play at least 4 games on Saturday.
Sunday were the “Winners-Losers” brackets

Big Thanks to Jono and Andy (who couldn’t unfortunately join because of his job), for the fantastic organization, to Gabes, Wayne, 14BikeCo and the community that helped out, especially the people that made food for everybody !
That was the first, but the London Open should become an annual tournament that evolves year-on-year to attract the best teams from around the globe.

Now, we can sit down with a beer, hands and legs broken, and while the washing machine cleans the blood off our shirts, watch the first pictures from those 3 days.

Pics taken by Morti are visible here, or on the Brussels Bike Polo Flickr gallery

Roxy’s pictures are here, and the London Open 2010 group on Flickr has been created: everybody can now post its shoots ! More should come…

See you next year in London !
