|   where do i start | edaj
Dec 30, 2003 11:30 PM | | i have 4 lowend good bikes, all flat pedals. I can bunny hop about a foot, and do a bit of a wheelie, i will try some silly stuff like riding up a tree about 4 feet. Can anyone recommend some trials dvd's i can buy? i tried the clipless mountain bike riding thing and everyone is just concerned with the better bike, cool clothes, and upgrades and the latest shocks-atleast this was my impression thou i may misperceive the mountain biking mov't.
i want to balance on a railroad rail, ride up a tree and back, do 4 and 5 foot jumps, hop on back wheel, wheelie on front, huge bunny hops and dirt jump.
i want to be better at bike riding.
question: you guys that are better, that can do all that crazy stuff,
are you showing off or are you having fun? |

Jan 1, 2004 5:07 PM | | man, i have so much fun doing trials. it works out your body so good. it cured my asthma actually. plus, doing tricks looks super cool to your friends and onlookers and it feels satisfying to pull off a 360 nose drop off while your friends just pull back on the bars and float it.
go to www.biketrials.com and check out the movies section or get the DVD Contact. it's all about trials. also check out the Echo bikes website. lots of good vids. also a good vid on the Nicolai website. |
