Got registered few days ago and wanted to say Hello to everyone! Actually Im trying to put myself back into the Bike Trial business again:]. Im from Poland but living in Uk since 2007. Used to do trial for 3-4 years but had a massive 3 years long break because of my moving to Uk obviously. So now Im looking to get new bike and start from beginning... Hopefully not so painful as it was for the first time:].

Well hello there chaps, im from Newcastle but living in Oxford . Getting back into Trials after sadly quiting in 2001 to dabble in downhill, rode trials for about 6 years. Just bought a Zoo Pitbull and had it resprayed white its all ready to go except im waiting for my maggies to arrive, in white of course. As ive been away from trials for a wee while it will be great to get some advise on what parts are hot and what are not. God I feel like one of those plebs indroducing myself on blind date. Chow for now.

[davie 07 DMR]

Hello ,

My name is davie , I'm 29 years old , i live in Nottingham with my wife and 2 children.

I have been in to my bikes for a long time , I've gone from BMX to Trials from Trials to Downhill.

As of this moment i own a 2007 DMR .

My wife just gave birth 5 days ago to our 2ND child , so I'm quite pleased at the moment.

I had me a rough child hood , raised by myself (and the wolfs) but i got there in the end , it taught me allot.

I'm a easy going guy i don't get pissed off or angry ask my wife 10 years and she is sick of arguing with her self .

I believe every one deserves a 2ND chance but also believe they should not blow it.

I have no religious background but i don't judge people who have and don't mind others beliefs.

Just as a hobby i took up photoshop 4 years ago i have progressed quite a bit , feel free to ask for a siggy.

Well thats me guys hope i can help in some way and i hope to learn from you guys .

I have a hungry baby screaming blue murder !!!

Hi there, Names Theo. (kinda obvious haha!) 16 years old

Been riding trials since summer 09 and have come on pretty well. I reckon a good few years mountain biking experiance is behind me was the reason for that anyone agree or am I a natural? haha I wish.

Im riding a onza comp now, just upgraded from a onza t-bird, the change improved my skill loadas!

Im also in to gaming, climbing, downhill and stuff like that

It would be nice to get to know some trials riders in my area since im always riding alone, thats it I guess!

sorry for the spelling if there is any mistakes, I cant find the spellchecker, any help? thanks!

Hi, my name is jack and i am 17. I don't have a trials bike at the moment but am in the middle of buying one from ebay. My background is in bmx, xc, track (velodrome) racing and i have also dabbled in DH. I have always wanted to try trials riding, but never really got round to it. I live in Bromsgrove which is about half an hour from Birmingham, and would like to meet other riders and make some new friends, as well as progressing on my bike.

[TIGGER.]

[bij]

Hey I'm Brian, I'm new to the forum and I ride a mostly 26 inch trials bikes and have a BMX as well.

I've been doing Trials for about quite a few years and I'm still lovin' it. I live in Japan and there are good riding spots but compared to

other places it seems too cramped for space so there are less parks, less random rocks, rails and ledges around town than compared to other countries. To

get to the good spots you need a car.

[TrialsIsHard]

hey, im oli. Im pretty shocking at trials, i ride mainly in kent but would like to get to some of these bigger events.

if you live in kent please message me as i need some more people to ride with (theres about 5 of us now).

cheers.

Hi, My name is Chris im 32 have been riding ever since I was a kid.

Love all things 2 wheeled.

I have an Orange 5 a Single Speed On-One inbred and my misses just bought me a Mad 1.3.

Ive been out practicing in the evenings, I can get it on the back wheel and have managed 5 hops on the same spot. Just about to upgrade rear V brake with a Mag Hs33 so im hoping I'll have more confidence in the rear while Im hoping.

Other interests include Motorbikes, wakeboarding, snowboarding, climbing, trips to wales either mtb or mountain climbing, Wing Chun and anything else thats outdoors and dangerous.

I ride in Surrey so if anyone wants to hook up (be nice if your still learning so we can learn together) Pm me

Hi, I´m Andre and joined this forum to get more info on bicycle trials. I wanted to ride motorcycle trials, but I don´t have the time and money to finish the motorbike I´ve been building and now I moved away to a bigger city, so I thought I´d give it a try on the bicycle. I have riddent a Gasgas Txt and I just love how it felt but I think bicycles could be as much fun... I haven´t got a bike yet, but am looking for a second hand one. The problem is, that I´m from Estonia and I don´t know if they have this much uesed bikes here, so I think i have to settle with one from ebay. Maybe a24" would be great, but a 20" should be better for a beginner ?

[PeanuckleJive]

I'm crap at introductions!

I'm Liam, 20 from Macclesfield, Cheshire

Been riding trials for a few years but the bike's not seen any action for about a year, I just don't get time these days with work and such.

SO 2010 I'm gonna make an effort to get back out there and fall on me arse!

[Martin M]

Hi, I'm Martin.

I used to ride trials when I was about 14/15. I'm now 25 and i'm just getting back into it.

I'm currently in the process of building a bike, mainly finding old bits in the shed and scouring the internet for cheap bits (that's how I came accross the forum).

My set up so far is an Azonic DS-1, with Cannondale Fatty R forks, Magura Louise Disc's, Middleburn RS7 cranks, Hope Bulb hubs on Mavic rims, Azonic bars and IRC tyres. Still in need of a stem and a few other bits until I can get out again. My rig is going to be a bit more old school to what i've seen pictures of on here, but hopefully over time (and as I get a bit better!) i'll start upgrading!

Thanks for reading!
