Bicycle Polo was apparently a demonstration sport at the 1908 Olympic Games. Do not confuse this sport with Cycle Ball, a sport similar to football played on bicycles. Similar to the one on horseback just on bicycles instead.

Cheese Rolling
The aim of the competition is to roll your cheese to the bottom of the hill with you following it any way you can. The cheese can travel at up to 30 miles per hour, with the participants at much the same speed. People get hurt, some pretty badly, and if you ever see this event you will understand why.

Have you got any weird sports you'd like to contribute to the post?

I've heard about Cheese Rolling tbh I find that rather odd. I remember reading about a sport but can't remember the name I'll have a look on Google a minute!

On that I think 'Extreme Ironing' caught my eye the most:


People who play this unsusual sport go to a remote location and iron clothes! They call themselves 'ironists', and get a thrill from taking their ironing board, unplugged iron and some of their wrinkly clothes to some extreme places and photograph themselves doing it. Such places that they have reached include extreme altitude, underwater, hanging from cliffs, and on top of vehicles. Please do the ironing, but don't try these extremes at home.
