Some of the MKE players arrested are sponsored by MKE Bicycle Co. and ride on the Bruiser that some of said players rode prototypes and helped to design. In fact, during my years playing polo in MKE and traveling around N America and Europe, I've found that the "fixie hipster douches" don't last to long playing polo, though they are attracted to it obviously, it's something that's too hard to be a poser of because you can't fake not sucking. that is one of the reasons MKE polo stays better than other cities, is because about only 1 in 10 noobs actually stay around long enough to get good.<br /><br />and to snob, i've been playing polo consistently twice weekly since 05. we have used this structure, which is open to the public, huge, almost always empty, and actually part of a public park.. for the past 3 or 4 winters with no problems. there is no off season for polo, we just got harassed by some bored cops and a lazy lot attendant that was tired of emptying our trash can twice weekly when he would otherwise only have to empty once a month.joeMKEhttp://www.leagueofbikepolo.com/bike/joemke/milwaukee-bicycle-co-bruiser-smallnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213956784784062266.post-29841571396528358402010-01-14T14:47:59.759-05:002010-01-14T14:47:59.759-05:00Love the post thanks for the effort.Love the post thanks for the effort.Waco Personal Injury Lawyerhttp://www.wacopersonalinjurylawyers.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213956784784062266.post-6774708684742372962010-01-14T13:38:10.302-05:002010-01-14T13:38:10.302-05:00my legs are so weak and powerless, that when coupl...my legs are so weak and powerless, that when coupled with my shriveled lungs, I have to get $200 pulleys to make it down the road.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213956784784062266.post-30899175189501238742010-01-14T12:41:59.569-05:002010-01-14T12:41:59.569-05:00CENTURY!!!!!
