I voted "BMX" just because I the option that really does it for me isn't there- Freeriding. I ride all the time with BMXers, and when we ride on the street, I ride with trials style, mostly, and with a little BMX style, and a "whatever I wanna try" style (I ride a Giant STP mountain bike). (So I think that's freeriding? :"> ) Either way, BMX is a little easier becuase at the lower levels, it requires less skill and more speed (speed=fun?). Trials is trickier because in order to do it you need a lot of balance and practice. For some people, trials is definitely more user friendly (and they probably have great balance), but for people like me, I just like to ride fast and bunnyhop up and down things :P" . Great topic. :rolleyes: :">

Crazy Bail! Right on par with Fr!ka's bail, I think :- Glad you had your helmet on! Looked nasty (Y)

It said on the sight it's an electric engine? Still expensive, no doubt, but at least no plugs and fuel! (Y)

I saw the announcement that Google Video opened, and so I searched for biketrials. Take a look at what I found! http://video.google.com/videosearch?q=biketrials I posted here because even though a search yielded no results- I can never be sure if I am posting a dupe :">

Haha, crazy video. By the way, I saw that video of the guy in the jet engine on tv once- turns out he was saved because his belt buckle got caught on something, and held him from actually getting in the turbines. I think the flame out the back was his jacket or something... not sure though. (Y)

You made the internet a warmer, more friendly place, and I am sad to see Trials-Shack go. Thanks a TON for hosting all those wonderful vids ;)

Absolutely hilarious. Literally lol'ing. ;) :D :">

Sweet! Loving the old school hardware :D . Thanks for posting that! ;)

Wow. Libor Karas was like the first biketrialler I ever saw- I watched him in a moto trials video. I don't know of any vids of him on the net though :D . Will be cool if somebody finds some. ;)

In case, for whatever reason, you want to save the vid to your hard drives: Right Click Save As (it's a swf file) Great vid by the way, thanks for posting ;) :D

I'm betting they didn't have belly buttons :lol:

Enjoyed that video a lot. I like how you did a ton of big stuff, but still made it look effortless. :- :) Good vid. ;)

At the end, I swear I see the rider falling in the background? What's up with that? Great videos :) :P :bunny:

Great video, loved the music, and the riding! :rolleyes: Top notch. :D

Absolutely kickass video. Thanks a ton for making it- :rolleyes: :D :D

Pretty nice, I like your riding style. What forks are those? Looks like a soft ride :huh:

I love trials because I love bikes, and I think trials is an awesome form of technical riding- it's all about what is physically possible on a bike. I don't know, I have always been fascinated with bikes, and just thinking of what's possible. That's why I ride.

Cool man, I ride unicycle too. Just throw yourself on it as much as you can and don't be afraid, and you can learn quickly I think. I rode a wobbly 50 feet after about 3 days of practice, and it's been all improvement from there :- . Check out http://www.muniac.com for some tutorials and few video clips, it's a pretty neat site. Oddly enough, I can trials on my unicycle pretty well, hop in place, all that jazz, but I still can't do a proper pedal kick on my Monty X-Alp :"> That's why I think you will catch on pretty quick. At least for me, backhopping was harder to learn than unicycling.

I agree with most that's posted as well. It's great to play with, but Windows (at least to me) is more useful as a desktop. I dual boot Slackware 10.1 and Windows XP Pro, and I pretty much only boot into Slackware when I am bored! Check out LinuxISO.org for downloads and help forums. Also, hanging out around DistroWatch can kind of help you get a feel for what's available. Have fun!

Brilliant video, I love the power of the riding style, it makes me want to ride mod again! (Y) :"> Thanks a ton for posting that, it's great. :(

Great video! Loved the mood when it was natural, neat song there :huh: . sexymike: Worked for me, try redownloading? You've got XVid, right? Again great vid, fun to watch :P :P

http://www.gamegardens.com/gardens/browse.wm ? lol Good topic :(

Both vids are brilliant, but what is the second song in that vid right there? It was sweet. Both videos rocked, thanks for posting them.

Take a look at this! :lol:
