Watch some videos of other riders closely before you go out and just try the same kind of thing yourself. You'll pick it up eventually... its just an annoying hurdle when your first starting off with the sport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Scarlet Posted July 15, 2007 Report Share Posted July 15, 2007 Well Jake you've already started off well and hopefully you'll be able to make a bit more of a trials scene in Braintree.There are quite a few members around the Essex area who usually ride in different spots around Essex.Best places are Chelmsford, Clacton, Southend, hopefully we should be having a largish ride in Braintree in the summer.Have you got your bike yet?Look forward to hearing from you.

jsychem Posted July 15, 2007 Report Share Posted July 15, 2007 I learnt with stunt pegs ... it was really weird but me and a couple of mates put our front wheel on a wall and would start jumping back to see how many hops we could do with our feet on the pegs. After we got our balance we would do it on the pedals and it just went from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
