weirdoku Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 You know I'm kidding right??? Most of the time when I get asked, but then before I get to answer, the person says "its's just like BMX isn't it?" *pause* "Yeah it is, except it I don't have a seat."

Ben John-Hynes Posted August 6, 2010 Report Share Posted August 6, 2010 (edited) You know motorbike trials? "erm...yeaahh" It's like that but with no engine. I sometimes use that. It's shocking that 99% of the people who ask you can't put 2+2 together and realise it themselves if they already know what moto trials is.

modifiedridah2k9 Posted August 7, 2010 Report Share Posted August 7, 2010 Isn't that BASE jumping? It is, if their dumb enough to think i base jump on a bike. I guess i explain it wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe O'Connor Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 Isn't that BASE jumping? Doesnt base jumping involve a higher jump than what is involved in trials? I normally say the whole motorless trials thingy... Or tell them its like BMX but with out a seat and you dont roll fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rusevelt Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 I just tell them that it is a form of stunt riding. I don't even bother about mentioning Danny Mac, because there are people to this day whom have never heard of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
