Rich Pearson Limey Video 1

Morning all,

New video shot last night in Truro, just some clips of me getting used to the new frame. A lot of stuff thats been featured in previous vids, nothing new really.

As can be seen in the video I'm supported this year by two companies, Andrei Burton Events and Onza Bikes. A little further information about both: Andrei Burton as many people know is one of the top trials riders in the world and one of the most professional. Having spent years as a professional demo rider, Andrei is expanding his shows to more than just him riding, bringing in new trials riders such as myself and other extreme sport performers, to create a new show format that he is very successfully producing under the name of Andrei Burton Events. Having known Dre for a good 6-7 years, I've been lucky enough to secure a deal as a session rider for the 2010 season, and through Andrei being supported by Onza, have been blessed with a nice bit of product support from them. Having had a chat with Joe (Poyzer), I feel I'd like to clear up that I am NOT "sponsored" as some people may call it, as Joe did not feel he'd be able to commit to taking on another rider with 1) quite a few riders on the team already and 2) Joe working extremely hard on many other projects at the moment, which leaves him precious time for Onza. He has however very kindly sorted me out with a deal which helps us all out, and in return I'm helping show his brand off a bit.

Some of the more astute of you will also have cottoned on that I'm no longer riding for M.A.D. Nothing I really want to say except I owe M.A.D an enormous debt for giving me my first opportunity as a full time professional rider over last summer for which I am incredibly grateful, and leaving the team was not a decision I came to easily. I had an amazing time riding with the team, best of luck to all the boys still with M.A.D and any new riders they pick up; they've already been out to Mumbai and Bahrain this year the lucky sods!

Sorry for the big explanation, I half considered putting a news topic up but thought that might be a little pretentious doing one for myself :P Just wanted to clear up exactly what I'm doing this year as there's been a lot of talk of sponsors flying around this year so far.

Hopefully the next vid will be a little longer and a bit more lively, and hopefully I'll be able to get back into my old routine of producing roughly monthly videos like the ST ones.

Cheers for all the comments so far, all welcome, keep 'em coming,

Rich

rich...only one thing lets your videos down in my opinion....TRIPOD. get some people to come out riding with you and do a little bit of friendly filming for you.

other than that. sweet video.

Yeh, thats abit hard in cornwall, there aren't exactly a vast amount of riders, its the same reason why alot of my vids tend to be tripod filmed :(

Cool little vid that dude, will be good to get back and get some riding in!

Awesome video as usual Rich. Good luck with your move to Andrei Burton events / Onza, was a shame we only got to do the one? (southampton) gig together - but thats down to me not actually riding.... :$
