POLO FAMILY 

Madison Bike Polo has had many players grace its famous Thunderdome. Below are just a few of the faces you will see playing pick up and tournaments representing the MBP Family. 

Tony (Taco Tony) 

Bike industry guy, one of the best on our courts. Tony is the guy who will help everyone become better players by instruction and exhibition. Truly one of the reasons Bike Polo in Madison is strong. He also sends text messages to let you know when you are needed on the court to play. 

Jonathan

Tattoo Artist, killer player & all around great guy. Jonathan brings a great attitude to all bike polo pick up games and tournaments. 

Kayla

Photographer, Artist, Polo, Everything Awesome- Kayla has been playing in tournaments forever and is a star in our MBP community. More to come about Kayla. 

Matt

"I am so excited I cannot put it into words," said Matthew about Bike polo. Starting polo in early spring of 2017 he picked up the sport after an invite from some new friends. While watching one night he was able to borrow a bike and "try" it out. Being a natural, he picked it up and hasn't stopped. Building up a brand new bike just for Polo and already playing in tournaments in Wisconsin. He has been so busy thinking about playing polo and actually playing polo that he hasn't had the time to write this quick bio himself. We will let him pass since he is out there almost every chance he gets. Come out and try it for yourself. ​

This June will be my 4th anniversary of playing hardcourt bike polo in Madison.   I showed up at the courts one day with my StumpJumper and after a short wait we had a game going; people couldn’t be friendlier or more inviting. Now with a few years under my belt my skills have improved and after a few early bikes I now have a real polo bike with a disc brake and a tough tight handling frame/fork. Bike polo players have become some of my best friends and I see them off the court all the time.  I enjoy the competitive nature and dynamics of team sports.  Bike polo also looks to draw a diverse crowd of interesting and creative people that I don’t believe some other sports do. The bike polo community is a small and tight knit one.

I watched polo for a couple years before starting in 2014. Big thanks to Jenny Spencer of Davis Bike Polo for hosting women-trans-femme practices -- I probably would never have tried polo otherwise. My advice for people who are hesitant to get on the court: there's no time like the present; I wish I had started playing earlier! It looks intimidating, but I had no background in team sports or sports requiring hand-eye coordination. If I can do it, you can, too. We are a friendly and encouraging group of people, and you'll be amazed at what you can do if you give it a shot.

Brandon

I have been playing polo for just over 3 years or so now. It is my release. I love the community that the MBP provides and with a non digressive competitive level of play. Photographer, Bike Industry guy, love the outdoors and one of my best friends is a pug named Shimano.

Tommy

Apples, Farms, all things good, never turn downs a hug. More to come on Tommy. 

Maston

Lefty, we think he is in a secret society, but not sure. Always ready to help teach others new strategies of play. More later. 

Ben

Old School, always on a broken bike and amazing player who gives it his all. Ben has been around since the start of Madison Bike Polo and still comes out to stretch his arms.
