Forget the horse. For this kind of polo, players only need to know how to ride a bicycle.

It might not be as elegant, but it’s a lot more accessible and cheaper than its equestrian counterpart. All the athlete needs is a bicycle, a mallet and a street-hockey ball. A helmet might come in handy, but it’s optional.

The rules of the game are simple. Play begins by placing a ball in the center of the playing area. Players wait at opposite sides until a countdown frees them. Then they charge toward the ball.

It all sounds kind of dangerous, and Lee Geer, a member of Columbus Bike Polo, said accidents do happen.

Nice. I’ve been wanting to try this and have a bike in the garage screaming to be a polo bike.
