Description

Hardcourt bike polo traces its roots back to late-1990s Seattle, with Chicago running games since 2007 at the corner of Central Park Avenue and Jackson Boulevard. While all are welcome to participate, the physical reality is blunt: first-timers are more than likely to fall off their bikes and get a little battered and bruised during the first couple of rounds. Matches take place on Wednesday nights and Sunday afternoons.
