Hey. New here and pretty new to trials. I live in the Yukon, Canada. We have great mtb trails and I started riding bikes to lose weight and get back into shape (and keep up with my toddler). I spent quite a bit of time on a road bike last year training for some long races and burnt out a bit on riding but trials has kindled it again. I have always loved watching trials riding. It reminds me of my old skateboarding days where you would session a spot and hang with friends while learning skills. A couple of years ago I took a dirt jumping bike and put a front brake on it and built new wheels for it to try to do some trials. I am horrible. This year, I just want to have fun on a bike regardless of whether I'm mtbing, road riding or trials. I finally feel like I am getting somewhere with some very basic moves and I am having a blast. It is also a great way for me to ride with my 3 yr old on his run bike. I am 41 (i think… I will have to check with my wife. I can't remember… haha!) and I am moving pretty cautiously with trials because I just don't heal like I used to. I will be begging for instruction over the next while.
