Congressmember @beccabalintvt.bsky.social demands the release of Mohsen Mahdawi, the Columbia University student arrested by ICE this week. “He is being attacked because of free speech. This should terrify every single person living in this country, regardless of your citizenship status.”

We lost a #bikepolo legend and a really good friend and teacher.
May we all be more adventurous and generous in honor of Gabe 💕
We love you Gabe 💜
I love this interview with Funlola - incredibly important as we organize tournaments and build up our clubs!

In attempt to self-sooth re: how horrifying the news/reality is, I keep turning to #bikepolo
For the endo pivot:
1. how much pressure is on the pedals
2. when to use, let go of the brake
I can’t endo (yet!), but this move is so hot and I need to learn it

Congrats! Maybe they will post some of the other games! Would love to see more!
Yea, it’s so fun to watch the momentum of the plays and seems to offer a lot of possibility for passing, assists! I want to try this out!
'get out the net' was a team that played at Jack the Dish 2024 - 'get out' doesn’t win, but you can see when it works/doesn’t work

it was cool to see - was kinda similar to the circular plays you had done with the polo camp team

How Fathoms (NAHPBC 2024 v Trogolodytes) approach playing #bikepolo - one main goalie staying back, two individual forward players making solo plays - is so different than the circular, 3-up, pass-focused play by Get Out of Net (Jack the Dish 2024 v Crumb Dumpster).
😍 different approaches 😍
Manu at Latin American #bikepolo championships!

V like the courses from my program re: examining literature to learn about violence, natural resources (and effects on nature and climate), terrorism/counter-terrorism, genocide.

I don't think I have! I mostly just watch gnives on YT - thank you!
Yea! It's great when Manu and I can meet. We do 1v1 and one timer passes - truly so helpful.
People who solo polo, what do you do?
I mostly work on ball control and bike handling - but am curious if ya'll have activities you like to do?
I mostly do: cone weaving w ball, taking different kinds of shots on goal from varying locations, and bike handling.
