  1. These Wolfsport boots have been great, used them 7-8 times now and you cant tell your wearing them, even after 5-6 hours out on the bike. really comfy from day 1

  3. I was meant to be riding the Beamish there, but hurt my back and didn't want to risk making it worse
  4. I'm the same age as you and have never done any form of motorsport. I had always like trials as a kid in the 70s and the very first bike I rode at 11 was a mates OSSA 250 mar. earlier this year(April), I decided I wouldn't mind having a go, so got myself a Beamish Suzuki 250. Did my first ever trial in September and won my class. There seem to be a good few 70s twinshocks about at really good prices £800-£1500 I say go for it, see if you can find some ground to practice on, after a few months of looking, I managed to find a place and haven't looked back. The classic trials scene is a very friendly place, with lots offering help and advice to new guys just starting out.
