dan williams Posted March 5, 2018 Report Share Posted March 5, 2018 Welcome to the sport Willy. Understand it takes a bit to learn the techniques and it can be frustrating on the beginning part of the learning curve but after a bit you’ll start to get the hang of it. Then it becomes fun. Then addictive. You’ll start seeing trials sections off the side of the road, in friend’s back yards wherever you go. That’s when you know you’re hooked.

tony27 Posted March 12, 2018 Report Share Posted March 12, 2018 No real club as such but a few riders from memory, get in contact with PeterB, he lives in Auckland & is the former gas gas importer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzwillie Posted March 12, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2018 yeh doesn't seem to be much of a trials scene here I think Hamilton would be the closest i might head along to an event there to see what its all about .I managed to con a mate to get trials bike as well ,and working on converting a couple other mates into trials that I ride with.i ended up with a scorpa sy250 2006 it has a couple of small issues but all in all pretty good ,you wouldn't happen to no if any body has parts for these in nz.the gasgas I bought was way to hard to start just would of taken the fun out of it for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
