What Made You Start Trials


Recommended Posts

Well I thought about starting trials after I saw a few programs on extreme sports like drop in TV and ride guide they all had trials showing regally on sky and after I saw them I started thinking about getting into it . so at the time a was thinking about getting into trials I had a downhill bike but it was getting old so asked my mum and dad to get me a new bike and after hard persuasion they said yes so I got a Saracen buzz rode that fore a year or so and then got a m.a.d and then started getting into trials. That was 2/3 years on I have never looked back and said it was a bad choice and I still love it.

Well I started because I was bored of racing 4x and riding downhill, and I remember seeing Ryan Leech preform a demo at Whistler, and by this point I was riding freeride, and thought trials is a great thing to spice up my freeride(that last part sounded gay, but its the truth,lol) but i sold all my dh bikes and 4x bikes, and got my self a trials bike and a gaint stp to do freeride and trials on to bikes! It doesnt really make sence but thats it! lol

I've always "Wanted to be able to do that" when I've seen trials riders about. And recently 2 of my mates got Trials bikes... So I saved up a bit and got one.

I love it because it's such a progressive sport. Nearly every ride you can see yourself improving slightly, and one move can branch out to other moves etc.

And the bikes look damn sexy :D

one of my friends got a diamondback trials bike and i started riding it and i found it really enjoyable so i started looking on the Internet at some trials and i was mesmerized by how easy they made it look. So i saved up £300 and bought a onza t vee and i've been riding for about 2 and a half months now and haven't looked back since

Dirt jumping is shit, thats why, I felt like I wasnt improving so just thought f**k it and remembered seeing a load of guys hopping off bottlebanks and such near my house, had a chat with them and they reccomended me visit tartybikes, brought a trex, didnt use it much then found there was more involved than gapping and endoing now im addicted and still mostly gap and endo

i used to do moto trials but only got out once or twice a month, i seen a guy round my area doing bike trials and thought to my self that would be quite cool, do bike trials when i cant do moto trials...

so i bought a saracen!! use it for about 8 months, loved it, sold the motorbike and bought a echo ES3 and a sexy spec to match B)

it all started from there, and since that ive had 7 bikes :)

I have only ever ridden bikes, I have done dirt jumping and skateparks for about 5 years, 4X for 2, XC for, ever.

I found myself just doing trialsy street stuff on my jump bike, and had £300 in my hand. Hmmm. So I bought a T-Pro, then it cracked after 1 month.

I started trials because I thought I would be different because there are so many bmxers and skaters in are town, not that there is anything wrong with them sports I just dont relay enjoy doing them as much as trials (mainly because I was not very good at them). Also I saw a couple of other riders going about and I thought hey why not give that ago so then I bought a t-bird and I was off!
