Why Is Trials Riding So Big In The Uk (and Nowhere Else?)

Im guessing all you lot live down south then.

I live in the higlands of Scotland. There is plenty of places to do other extream sports like down hill.

The trials seen here isnt that big. I think in my school there is one other trials rider and about 20 or 30 odd down hillers.

If I want to hit I good street sesh I need to go 2 and a half hours on a train to the nearist city/town.

Overall the UK has a high population. But up here you have about 370,000 people scattered over an area twice the size of Belgium.

But i am trying get more people in to trials and I'm getting there so wish me luck!

What an absolute load of bullsh*t. Trials riding is not only done in the UK, it has a fairly large base in America and most of europe for that matter, also china (where most frames are impoted from anyway). I don't know anyone who rides indoor comps and although what you say abou riding in the rain is technichally correct, very few people come out in the rain.
