mags Posted November 18, 2014 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 I did the same thing early this year at 55 and my wife's first ever go on a motorcycle at 50 not being a pillion! Have not looked back and we are addicted now to the point I will have trials bicycle arrive over the weekend! I will use for a bit of fitness and some dodgy beginner bicycle trials! Or it will be an old aged home for spiders very quickly... Hehehehe Mags 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devo8 Posted November 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 I know what you mean about fitness, I do single track and downhill mountain biking. I find trials motorbiking takes a lot more energy, you have just reminded me I have a trials bicycle in the garage, so I think I'll follow your lead and start using it again.

mags Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 (edited) I'm a virgin on a trials bicycle but I'm gonna have a go... I'll use my motorcycle trials helmet and once I saw the spikes on the pedals ordered a set of shin guards!! If it turns out I cant back wheel hop (99%unlikely) at least I can practice static anywhere anytime without starting a motor!
