Hello All,

Been lurking for some time and just found out that I could now join with my gmail address. Been riding motorcycles forever, dabbled (and dabbed) with trials for a few years in the seventies and have rekindled the passion. I figure the '80's bikes are high tech compared to where I left off and have recently developed a serious addiction to Fantics. I've gathered a lot of info from this forum and thought it was time to contribute whatever small bits I can to the group.

Thanks

Wayne

Welcome and watch that Fantic addiction ! There is no known cure or 12 step program to help !

I know firsthand , I've got Fantics from the trials bicycle to the last Section , with a few in between .

And mine talk to me ....(when we're alone !)

Welcome back! I'm actually flying out your way for the weekend in a couple of hours. I also started riding Trials in the very early 70's (lived in San Jose at the time) and was a member of PITS.

You'll really like this Forum, it's a world-wide hub of information and collective knowledge and there is something on here for everybody.

Cheers!

Jon

Trials is a sport that always welcomes back riders who may have given it up for whatever reason, unlike most participant motorsports I've experienced. It must be the type the people that are attracted to it, they are a different bunch.

I started in 1971 and was out of Trials for a couple of years some time ago and one of my wise Trials friends said to me then "Ya know Jon? Riding Trials is like smoking cigars or riding Ducatis, you may give them up for a while, but sooner or later, you'll be back!" He, of course, was right and I'm enjoying the sport more than ever......
