THE NEXT GENERATION

HOW MANY KIDS ARE OUT THERE ....... LOVE TO SEE THE SHOTS!
A few years ago I introduced my son to the joys of trials riding, but it wasn't him. I've learnt a lot about rugby since then.
However.... my brothers young bloke has picked up the batten. These photos show us a pretty big moment in his progress.
This is him on his TY80. Some lunatic on an acid trip must have painted it that colour in the 70s. It is known as ""THE SCARLET PIMPERNEL", But not for the reason which you may well think. He absolutely loves it to death.
He's had it for about 4 years now and on our last ride reckoned it was time for some "tricky stuff"
So I found this here log............ About the right size for a young bloke.
Watching now mate......this is how we do it.
My son shows him, (told you earlier it wasn't him)
Bit more detail.
Righto mate, I'll show you on yours, (Just as well we replaced the clutch last week)
Can't remember if this was enthusiasm or protestation....... but somehow I think his dad is poised to wack him.
A eureka moment, first up, well done mate.
It's an unbelievable load of fun riding with him and his SCARLET PIMPERNEL.
Love to see others similar inspiration.
