Tomm Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 Yeah, your balance and skill will come back much quicker than you think (Not sure about stamina though!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 Can't believe you've gone all green Tomm. Give the new members all the hell they deserve! I've always wondered how it would be to get on a trials bike in 10 years time. Can you pedalkick easily? That requires a lot of coordination, wondering if you've still got that skill. It will definitely come back though, just keep trying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fruitbat Posted July 15, 2007 Report Share Posted July 15, 2007 I know where you're coming fromI stopped for about 15 months and tried to get back into it, stamina was awful, balance was dreadful, power was near enough none existant......and being honest, it don't come back as quick as you'd like.Yeah it comes back over time, but you always try and ride the way you remember you could do, and obviously can't do anything anywhere near as big!Hopefully i'll be back into it again soon, but for how long!?!?!?!Frooty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
