ogre Posted September 29, 2005 Report Share Posted September 29, 2005 My mom has just asked me if anyone has actually died riding trials this is after showing her about 3 minutes of some Andrew Tonkery video on http://www.observedtrials.net/index.php? (think it's the second one down) anyway it made me think has anyone died? have they or for that matter has anyone been paralysed (please dont put ur little war stories up here unless they have left you in a electric wheelchair) wich has given me another little idea, could you do a power hop in a wheelchair? (anyone who is in one please try, better yet FILM IT) wow I'm evil arent i! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cp101 Posted September 29, 2005 Report Share Posted September 29, 2005 I think most people know when to bail. It's a weird feeling, that feeling of fall, a person generally knows what they can handle. When dirt jumping, I knew if the jump was gonna go well as soon as my rear wheel was off the mound..

Will Arnold Posted September 30, 2005 Report Share Posted September 30, 2005 this is a bit pointless really.. afterall, people have died from eating chicken :rolleyes: i think its all about knowing the risks, if you know the risks, then you can fall but in a safe way :S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cp101 Posted September 30, 2005 Report Share Posted September 30, 2005 you, poor dude was in a hit and run. Happens so often in my part of the world, its f**king ridiculous. Could happen to anyone of us. Some drivers aren't respectful of bikers at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
