robin m. s/c Posted October 30, 2011 Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 What do Tone Bou, Albert Cabestany, Jeroni Fajardo & Takahishi Fujinami have in common? Well apart from being top world trials riders they all made there name in winning world biketrial championships before they moved to the motorized variety. They have managed to transfer the skills they learnt on a bicycle with balance and hopping onto the motorbikes with great success. In both Spain and Japan the sport of biketrials is big and is bringing new riders through all the time for a future on the World trials circuit. Britain has a small dedicated biketrial following and maybe can do the same in future being a stepping stone into motorbike trials. Currently we have three biketrial world champions with Jack Carthy, Charlie Rolls and Adam Morewood and who knows whether any of these will transfer the skills and be the next Toni Bou. The final Tyketrial club event is this weekend, 6th November, at Branshaw Quarry, Oakworth, Near Keighley. Why not go along to see the three world champions and the other competitors or dig out your bicycle and helmet and have a go yourself. Entries can be taken on the day but the organizers would be most grateful if you get in touch prior to the event.
