Default New toy.

Been wanting to get back into trials biking for a while and back competeing so ordered this full work's bike...beta Evo bosi...this one weights in at 66kg but I've ordered a few bits in titanium that will bring it down to 59kg... Which is very light....it will be here in 2weeks as its a new 2013 model.

Basically if you look just before the take off... You will see a rock... That is what's called a kicker... What you do is set off in 2nd or 3rd gaining speed whilst slipping the clutch... As you approach the kicker you compress the bike down and has it comes up let the clutch fully open... Then your air Bourne ...

I gotta say I enjoy watching trials, a lot of skills involved, we have a motorsport programme in Wales called ralio+ (rallying and more), they cover some trials occasionally, its good stuff.

so this is parkour in the woods then is it

looks like a lot of fun, but i bet it takes real skills to be able to jump rocks and stuff without falling over and staring in your own "fail" videos
