TRY TRIALS.
Re: TRY TRIALS.
I've really enjoyed coming last two years running (thumbs) and would like to do it more. Finding time for green laning is hard enough, so can't really see me finding time for trials as well... but keep looking at eBay. There's a cracking looking Sherco 250 that's caught my eye recently...

Go for it Dave, I don't use mine that much, but I wouldn't be without one.
Some are put off as you have to transport them, but bike racks are cheap
Collapsible trailers are a good option, a load of fun for not that much
Penny's. Dave cooper is good for racks and trailers. I have both, but not
Used now with having a van, I'm having a clear out so they may come up
For sale soon. (thumbs)

Re: TRY TRIALS.
I know what you mean, however I haven't ridden my trail bike for 6 months as I am getting fed up with the politics and lane closures associated with Green Lanes (severe case of CBA)Dave DRZ wrote:I've really enjoyed coming last two years running (thumbs) and would like to do it more.

On the other hand, i'm doing more and more Trials now, good craic and atmosphere - no aggro and ride where you want (with the landowners permission at events)
I can see me selling my trail bike perhaps, in future

Re: TRY TRIALS.
Brilliant weekend. Major thanks to Scoob for sorting and providing his bike along with Neil and Sid, not forgetting Bob for entertaining us and the local ladies on Saturday evening... My son Alex wants to thank you all for making him so welcome, he was a little apprehensive about coming but loved it and can't believe what a nice bunch of blokes you are. Richard it was a pleasure to meet you thanks for the photos and vids, hope to see you again.

I have wanted to give trials a go for ages and this was a fantastic opportunity, I am seriously interested in getting a bike in the near future.johnnyboxer wrote:Did anyone get bitten by the Trials bug?
Just can't get over how punishing it can be on lower arms and hands - definitely gives them a good work out
PS ...glad I finally got there with the vids
