omgnoseat Posted November 2, 2007 Report Share Posted November 2, 2007 Here are some natural training video's from Michell Bos and Rick Koekoek.Michell Bos- Amazing for just 15 years old, some very nice lines in there.Rick Koekoek - #8 at worldranking atm- - - Al just some short training video's, REALLY don't do him any justice thoughRick is the only dutch trialbiker who competes internationally, should give you an idea of the populairity of trials in the Netherlands.All those sweet riding spots are at the other side of the Netherlands though, so don't think that I get to ride such sweet places all the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

omgnoseat Posted November 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2007 I thought Holland was "trials hell"? Brilliant rider!It is There are pretty decent locations to ride [not where I live though]But some other factors make Holland a "trials hell":- Very few riders, only about 30 are riding active over whole Holland, so I need to ride alone 90% of the time- Almost no competitions, only about 4 a year- No shops or market for trials, so whenever I break a part I have to wait about 2 weeks before my order from an other country comes inHad to defend my only exuse for slow progress No but really, it is quite frustratingAbout Rick, these clips really suck bollocks, he is way more amazing than these video show.I went to a competition once and saw hime ride there.He was sidehoping over a 120cm bar with ease, sidehopping up 8 pallets to rear and bunnyhop 11 pallets to bashplate.Looks like his bike is just a part of his body Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Trials 31 Posted November 3, 2007 Report Share Posted November 3, 2007 Great vids, but I got a few questions. Michael Bos was riding a Monty right? And Rick was riding a Koxx? Was Rick also wearing a Gas Gas jersey too? Just kind of curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just kind of curious.Michell [not michael ] is riding a monty 221PR 2006 model, and Rick is riding a koxx xtp long version, he is sponsored by koxx belgium.He is wearing the gas gas jersey because he used to ride motortrials I believe, I'm not sure since I've never spoken to him personal.
