We left Barcelona with many thanks to Camilo and pointed our fingers towrad switzerland. After boarding many different trains for a few hours at a time, we arrived in geneva switzerland. we immediately got on the internet and found where they were playing polo and headed out tot he courts. we were welcomed with open arms by the crew and we had some awesome games. Geneva def has their game on lock. Manuel offered his flat to us for the weekend so we headed to his flat to cok some dinner. He prepared us a swiss dinner and we hit the hay.
They following day we rode around the city and found a "baby beach" where there was a jungle jim through out the trees made from used bike tires. It was a site to see, and being a cyclist i appreciated it much more than the average person. Heading over to the gold sprints in a underground art community, we found only a few trick riders hanging out. The gold sprints never happened but we did get to meet some new poeple and hang out at a fresh bmx skatepark.
Yesterday, we hopped on the bandwagon with a protest riding a free train to Bern. It was socialists fighting for whatever, we got a bunch of free food on the train and then headed to the polo courts.. While fixing my tire, one of hte polo players ran into us and we headed to the courts only to fight FOOT HOCKEY being played. So we made some makeshift courts and payed outside the court. Gabor also showed us his bike workshop in a crazy old barn next to a train yard. He has some sweet as vintage bikes. We took the train home and walked a festival in the streets. Some good sleep is what we needed. Bike polo tommorow!
The game of checkers is banned in North Korea.
