Hi everyone, new to the forum (and sport) so thought I would start by introducing myself.
At the grand old age of 42, I have never so much as given cycle trials a cursory look - I have been missing out!! I've had an interest in cycling all my life. Started off in the eighties with the first wave of BMX's then later onto mountain bikes (easier for my then paper round!) never done anything serious though. I then moved onto motorbikes - mainly moto X, grasstrack and then a bit of road racing. Have also had a couple of Gas Gas TxT 250 trials bikes to knock around on.
My Daughter is now riding an Oset (doing quite well in this winter series) and I thought I might get a cycle trials bike to follow between sections. Having looked on you tube, I can only say how blown away I am with the talent out there!! I know at my age I have missed the boat somewhat, but what a fun way to keep fit.
LBS has a diamond back justice resolve in at the moment - mine for £150 if I want it. Not in greatest shape, but not too shabby. I'm only a small bloke 5' 6" if I really straighten my back - would I be better off with 20" onza? I don't want to spend much, as I'm never going to set the world a light at my age and if worst comes to worst it will be great transport back from the pub!!
any thoughts/recomondations will be appreciated (and yes, I know I should be looking for a Zimmer frame really)
