Paris needs polo gas piping

I'm trying to kickstart bike polo in Paris, and the guys are motivated, but they can't find the gas piping... Has anyone got some spare? I remember giving a long tube of blue pipe to Jack a couple of months ago but I don't know if he's on the forum.
Ideally I would grab 6 cut sections tmrw at polo and take them to Paris next week. They have the ski poles already.

You would think France, of all countries, would have a way of directing gas ?

Not having gas pipe is not reason to delay. I mean gas piping is not essential to start playing polo.

france's mains gas network is shit, most places don't have it. they have big tanks in the garden.

they don't really do heating, that's why all the old people die.

Is that Palais de Tokyo?? I went to a party/exhibition thing there once but it was at night. And indoors. The building was amazing.
