afrobiker Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 I've just started trials and I was wonder what sort of location is best to ride for a beginner? I mean I've started out on the street outside my house, but now I am able to rear wheel hop, trackstand, pedal kick and get on and off the curb using various techniques fine. SO yeah, what sort of obstacles, if any would be suitable for my level? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewie87 Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 ive been using pallets they are good for progression as well or if you have any industrial estates they are usually full of low walls and such like best to ride them when they are closed though weekends after work etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaRtZ Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 This is the beauty of trials. Get on your bike and start pedalling to somewhere. Keep your eyes open and you'll find something along the way that tempts you. Have a play on it, get bored, then move on! When I go to meet the local riders here, I have to add an extra 30 minutes because im riding stuff on the way to the ride. Obviously as you get better, more and more things open up and you can do more, but if you just get out on the bike you'll find something interesting. Theres no rule as to riding certain things will make you better quicker (except natural for balance) just do everything! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
