Ben Beckett Posted October 16, 2006 Report Share Posted October 16, 2006 if you was to do it more in the evenings when most shoppers ain't in town then it will be ok i suppose. just come out with some crap that you have a disorder with your skin and you are actually 16, but the dissorder makes you look a few years older! that way the complainer will feel awful for it! anyway i doubt that anyone will moan, just because you are not a kid but a mature adult-because of this they should most likely leave you alone.

luke_onza Posted October 17, 2006 Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 Hi my dad rides trials with me sometimes. He is 42 and if we go to a place where there are a couple of people he feels quite intimidated by the, they just stand there and call him an immature S.O.B. I feel that it doesn’t mater how old you are you should always have fun. I don’t really see what is immature about it! I think seeing a middle-aged man driving around like a boy racer is more immature. At the end of the day a trials rider is not going to kill some one doesn’t mater how old they are. An immature man driving around like it a game of road rash is.Luke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadManMike Posted October 17, 2006 Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 22, started when I was 15Exactly what he said!Coincedence!I think seeing a middle-aged man driving around like a boy racer is more immature. LukeYou contradicted yourself there. You said if they are having fun it doesn't matter how old they are.Not sticking up for boy racers either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rebelistic Posted October 17, 2006 Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 I think older people should ride trials, although it is mainly done by teenagers and young adults. I think it's a cultural thing as trials hasn't been around all that long (I know it's been around in europe for a while).I don't see why people in their 50's & 60's shouldn't ride trials. Ok as you get older injury is more of a problem but I don't think trials is any more dangerous than you make it.I bet Jackie Chan would be good at trials if he did it (he's 50 something).I'm 23 by the way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
