Right! Hello and Happy New Year and all that sort of pish and shite.
This year's Millportpoloco ( the 3rd in a series of 26 if the spaces on the trophy are anything to go by ) is going ahead on Aug 10th-12th.
As anyone who's been to the last two will know the emphasis is not on the competition, although there will be urban Keirin in Glasgow on Fri. night ( hosted by Mr. Jaimzey Tait ) and the main event: A ten mile time trial around the island of Great Cumbrae.
In addition to the individual time trial, this year we have a track tandem for you and a friend/drunk local to put a time in on whenever it suits you and, depending on how well the whisky's going down we might just have a skid comp on it. As you can see from the photo it still needs a bit of work but the hard part ( getting eighty year old bottom-brackets out ) is done and there will be regular updates WATCH THIS SPACE.
Full and exact details of this years event will be posted soon but we can guarantee a few things: shite prizes, £1 whisky in The Tavern, deep fried pizza, a great big fire, swimming and if the last two years are anything to go by at least one person will end up in the hospital and Niall Dobie will get hypothermia.
So if you're in the vicinity of the British Isles this summer you'd be daft not to make it to sunny Scotland...just look at the state of our fucking cows!
