RicH_87 Posted February 14, 2005 Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 LOL me and my friend (calops) can do it, (he's better than me :wink2: ) Its all about the steering, just steer which ever way you lean. We were doing it out the front of my house though, and my dad said we shouldn't becasue he knows a lad who fell of and got his bars stuck up his arse'ole. HAHAHAHA oh my god, how we laughed! but proceeded to ride farwards. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalopS Posted February 14, 2005 Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 to start find a slight uphill, its easier to go faster as it keeps you in a strait line easier so just keep pedaling dont go slightly downhill and the pedals just run away form you unless you have good break control if you falling off just turn the way that balences u out its easy once u masterd it, just keep trying I think ill try go from your house to mine backwards next time im going home rich :wink2:" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I was on a ride in Worcester, I was doing it around a car park near the station and didnt see the curb, :"> I hit into it with my front tyre and went backwards and landed on my arse :P P.S keep practising(sp) Kyle, You will do it one day! :wink2: Edited February 14, 2005 by thesubway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

picki Posted February 14, 2005 Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 i used to be able to on the old gt when i was younger. used to show off and pretend to read mbuk whilst sat on the bars...thought it was kool! (dont ask) its harder to do with a longer stem though :wink2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomm Posted February 14, 2005 Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 I once saw Ant from Ant and Dec doing it, so I decided if he can do it, then surely a pro trials rider like myself ( :wink2: ) ought to be able to do it. It's not as easy as it looks though if you've never done it before! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomturd Posted February 15, 2005 Report Share Posted February 15, 2005 I can do it.. Also possible to do it like this, but its much harder to steer than sitting on the bars.. and it takes a bit more effort (and it looks incredibly silly) (not as silly as that picture would suggest though) :wink2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bucky Posted February 15, 2005 Report Share Posted February 15, 2005 I can do it :P I first learnt in a school play ground which was the size of 2 tennis courts and rode round it 7 times before falling off. I can do it for ages. I can even pop little wheelies for about 5 meters depending on how fast i'm going. It's simple. :wink2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
