Cargo Bike Polo may only be a small subculture of what is the counterculture to traditional Polo, and is therefore akin to a little toe tattoo on the vast body art canvas of a hipster sunbathing in the forecourt of the National Gallery of Art, but there is indeed a fissipated yet enthusiastic global following. Referred to by enthusiasts as "Crapolo", a convenient abbreviation that also does well to convey the cargo bikes crap hauling nature, this sport is relatively big in Japan. In fact, as depicted by the photo you featured, Japan contributes a total of three players. While Crapolo may be considered by most of the Western World (except perhaps Iceland) as an unnecessary and unethical exploitation of the gentle giants of the bicycle world, it's history has been intertwined in the livelihoods and folklore of the people of Japan for like at least 2 months. ceAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213956784784062266.post-87514364768657050852011-01-04T23:30:14.371-05:002011-01-04T23:30:14.371-05:00What, the soul patch is now "retro?"
