First Ride On The Beamish 250

[shakennstirred]

Having never compeated in trials, I got a Beamish 250 back in April and im now in a position to ride it.

Few bits needed doing to the bike, I needed a trailer and a tow bar.

everything sorted now, so I'm out for the first time this Sunday.

Not in a trial yet, just a practice, been kindly given permission to ride at a well used trials venue.

Cant wait, excited and nervous lol

Enjoy your day, and perhaps the Radox bath you might need Sunday evening.

Once you've got established with getting the bike going and some general blatting around, do make the effort to sort out a few easy sections as you might find in a trial (no need to use markers at first) and ride each one repeatedly to start thinking about the skills you need to use and improve to get it right. At first it'll feel like you're just practicing the same mistakes on each go but when a measure of confidence, and competence, develops it'll feel great.
