hi! Im Sam, im 15 and i have rode bmx for 3 years.
i have always loved trials but i have never had anyone to ride with as all of my mates dont like it.
i decided to sod them, buy a trials bike and do what i wanted to do .
i have been riding trials for about 8 months now, and i have been picking it up Very quickly. i can sidehop around 4ft both ways and gap around 6ft.
i started off riding a onza t comp, but i thought it was rubbish. i then went to a ZHI Zm1 rode that for 6 months, then i cracked it by slipping on a sharp wall and hitting my downtube very hard.
so now i have a new ZOO! lynx where my old crank arms wont work on it as they have a little offset and hit the frame.
when i had my ZHI i met a guy who rides trials and i rode with him everytime i could. he gave me the encouragement to keep trying harder, and gave me tips. he also took me to ride with Neil Tunnicliffe a few times.
thats it for the life story really.
i like food, monster energy, im a petrol head, and trials is my life!
