Just had a look at that website its a good site never knew anything like that existed.
Think its a great site
However youll never get a better view of it than in the flesh
Just watch people do it when your out riding and look at the way they do it,
Once youve learnt the basics of that trick will open up door's for you

Trials scene in leeds is built up of riders from all around leeds...
Hebden bridge
Huddersfield
Bradford
Skipton
Redcar
Pudsey
and the list gose on
there are quite alot of riders dotted around that will be more than happy to ride with you
your best bet would be to come on a group ride and meet a few of the locals and a few of us from near by
there is a ride this easter as shown in RIDES/LOCATIONS in full members
Wouldent be a bad idea to attend as there will be a few lads of all levels
p.s welcome to the forum and hopefull ride soon (add me to msn if you like can set up a ride in the near future)

Nice riding, you should keep practising on the rocks but you are very good at street.
Elliott
Maybe a street vid next ?
And to say its bin filmed on a phone its pretty good exept one clip is mostly of a lamp
keep it up
p.s see if you can get spread trials over there abit

Hi guys.
The finalised place we are riding is now Portsmouth.
Meeting at 11 outside the guildhall on the little sculpture thing
.If you are unsure of anything give me a text or call on 07511931968
People Definately going:
Me (matt K)
Andy B
I think Sav is going also.
allways wanted to ride portsmouth if you give enuf time before a ride ill be able to sort out a few northeners to come down (=
-
Brake wise ,
It depends on what you are going to ride for street maggie is way forward
Natty id say disc but also maggie has been better for me (=
This is a point not alot of people put about disc brakes if you are left footed id go disc even for street
I never had a problem with the hold of my rear disc just in sidehops i sometimes missed and buckled my disc :/ (due to been right footed)
for a begginer / learner id say that disc is the best way as you can ride in any weather and not have to worry about your brakes
AS stated above to improve your bike atm its not your brake you need to change but the front end set up
Trials costs alot of money and after youve got new forks bars stem could set you back 150quid +
p.s your front brake is mint just the lever thats wank change your lever (cost you like 7 pounds) and it will feel nice
and for a low mantinance back brake id vote avid works as good as a hope (= (and is £40)

Danny
This danny cartalage or other one haha
And im there broken wrist fert win and getting used to a new frame fert lads
All the rules have changed ive been told so ill have no clue what to do so someones going to have to help me out haha
ill be the fag on the onza with a pot on lol
-
In a way its a good idea having a street comp, forming a new way of expressing your self as a trials rider
and i know youve put the rules but your bound to get someone even as a beginner that is better than the rest
If this is going to happen i think it should not be won on hight or distance maybe make a few videos this week ,
and see how much you can inprove within the month and let the winner be the most improved out of the lot.
JUST MY OPINION.
There is a game i once played with a lad we went out to a spot and had a comp to see who could make the best line out of the objects (i.e walls) that was there in the one spot
wouldent be a bad idea if you added a aspect to this game on those lines, maybe if you had the sidehop,and gap comp judged on there hight and distance you could maybe
have a come for the best line made (this way it would be fair because you dont have to be the best on the bike just find a really good line and ride it)
AGAIN JUST MY OPINION.
-
all most look like a hsd but second look made me think otherwise

I really enjoyed this ride and got to put a lot of faces to names and think jack deserves even more credit than hes allready getting for this,
However as this is a forum would like to share my view on this and dont want to sound like a nob but here i go anyway,
London isnt that good to ride,sure its got the space for 300+riders but we were only as a group like that in the first spot,
For travelling down from up north it was a good day for the fun of it and stuff but if i come back down this year it wont be to ride
London.
Would like to see a lot more of the riders i met up with though possibaly start rides like this up threw out the year but in better locations
Think its time for the riders to come up here aha
-
Live in leeds but not too hard to get to preston think its around 25-30mins on a train
Wouldent mind a little ride there ive allways wanted to ride there but never had anyone to go with
Ill definatly go if adam is haha love him THE TOOL
my msn is cocky_199@hotmail.co.uk (its f**ked and wont let me add anyone, youll have to add me lol)
Thanks , Luke

-
liar - you want me......i can smell it
Youve just got to make sure your balls dont get court in your free wheel
-
Wheel swap a rail no front break only pulled it off a few times feel great after doing it (=
-
Bin there done that got the crack to prove it haha
good frames even with a booster your only gaining maybe a extra month of frame life
mine lasted more than 6months though had one for around a year+ only cracked on one mount swapped it with ben l and its still going frames around
year and a half old nah flex like f**kkkkkkkk
-
Well I atualy watched that twice
nice chilled vid
some tech moves also developing too
you have a style like one of the lads i ride with really reminded me of him threw the video keep it up
-
depends on what you concider music.
E.g.music=a tune/riff/song created by a band/musical instament!!
in other words... 'drum and bass' aint music....'gangsa rap'/'hiphop' aint music..
personal opinion. no offence intended and i know there are exceptions.
i usually put quite agresive music in my vids.
but i have to admit (although i don't like to) mellow 'drum and bass' works really well in trials vids.
Im pretty sure music is infact music, I asked what type of music are you into i.e drumandbass is a form of music ect (maybe if you used your noggin you would maybe put they style of music then fav band name)
-
Just wonderd how many difrent types of music you all like
FIRST: What music style / fav band ?
SECONDLY: What type of music do you prefer in a riding Video ?

-
i bet loads of people have had this, stood around, haven't ridden for a few minutes, go to ride away and pop, hissssssssssssss, flat tyre.
no glass/thorns/nails just a magical flat tyre.....brilliant
-
Depends how much the frame tends to flex
If i was to get a booster I would run a two bolt
Trialtech have one out the carbon one there mint friend has on on the back of his python 04 (they flex ALOT) and with the booster it works mint
Hi Im New

As why i said Skipton rather than k-town
The trials scene around leeds can be pretty shit,BUT if you get all of the lads out from say the list above i.e mike winton,little sam ,eudwardo smith,ben l,rossy c etc ...
can turn into a very fun day (=
there are also a few riders dotted around on pashleys and a megamo maybe your type of riding who knows but i know where they live so can get them out for you
also there was a guy who lives by one of the spots in leeds on what i think is a leeson but not sure however hes just started and been riding a couple of months ill
take you to him if you like
