Houseface Posted October 29, 2005 Report Share Posted October 29, 2005 hey guys, i was thinking the other day,how many trials riders,either here or not on t-f actually ride a different type of biking instead of trials as well as trials. for instance, i ride trials and bmx. do you guys ride other bikes, if so what types. steve.

Dava Posted October 29, 2005 Report Share Posted October 29, 2005 Well I'm looking to start trials, at the moment I ride DH, freeride, jumps and singletrack but I love decent dh/fr jumps they're the the most fun to ride and northshiore is always a laugh as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wayneone Posted October 30, 2005 Report Share Posted October 30, 2005 I ride xc on sundays. I go out with my step dad uncle and a mate we do about 30-40 miles, most we done was 42 miles. And my top speed is 41.4mph! Planning to do the london to brighton bike race next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
echo_olie123 Posted October 30, 2005 Report Share Posted October 30, 2005 I used to do abit of BMX but now i just do trials. But i found that doing BMX actully helped my trials riding, for streety moves and things also going from a quite heavy bike two a realy lite one.

T_PRO Posted October 30, 2005 Report Share Posted October 30, 2005 I used to do x-country racing, but now i'm a full on trials rider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMunn Posted October 30, 2005 Report Share Posted October 30, 2005 Used to be into the dirt scene alot, rode jumps, bmx racing, 4X, dual slalom etc. but at the moment i'm only riding trials and a little bit of bmx dirt/racing. I need to get myself a downhill bike aswell though, I've been on a few and think its awesome. Bit pricey though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrsMonkey Posted October 31, 2005 Report Share Posted October 31, 2005 :deej:-->QUOTE(R*B @ Oct 29 2005, 10:32 PM) ← on my hardcore hardtail worth around £1500. ... Used to ride a bit of BMX as a kid too. Still sound like a kid, if the most important thing about riding is telling everyone how much your bike cost. (Y) I have a BMX but I ride alot more trials, I'm not so well suited to the more fast and aggressive aspect of riding that is BMX. I have a road bike which I ride the most. :) x Dani x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
