dave o Posted August 3, 2006 Report Share Posted August 3, 2006 Hi Guys, after a lay off from riding since i was a lad, i've recently got back into bikes although I've never considered trials. Now i've bought a trials bike and want to give it a go, but the question is where to start on the learning process. I'm sure someone out there can give me some sound advice. Please.

sherpatensing Posted August 4, 2006 Report Share Posted August 4, 2006 Good for you DaveO. Good advice from Fellonmelug. Do you have a garden and/or driveway? It's surprising what you can do with a few obstacles even in a smallish area. If you haven't done any trials before, I would suggest that you get used to standing up on the bike and just riding round in first and second gear, doing some turns etc. But as fellonmelug says, just keep using the bike and things will come naturally. Even if you are physically fit, you may get aching legs and wrists but don't give in, it gets better. Where are you DaveO because I know of a novice/easy trial coming up specifically for newcomers to the sport. Sherpatensing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
