Trials Australia Forums

What a great experience I had !! I am converted now to trial and want to buy a bike !

I have been riding offroad with my KTM 250exc and I have always wanted to try a trial bike but did not know anyone with one.
Last year at Wildwood (VIC), the crew from Trial Experience was there with their bike and giving flyers. Well, finally I booked myself for the day.

Cass came to pick us up in Ballarat and we were given 2011 trial bike, I was on a 2011 250 Sherco. First impression was very weird compare to a KTM.
But, they are so light !! Trent taught us how to do slow corner, off camber and then onto the logs.
The day went fast, BBQ was provided. I did not want to stop and I realise that it is going to take a lot of time and practice before I can tackle a rock !! not as easy as it looks

All in all, great experience, great people, great bike, I am hooked !!

also did the intro' course with Cass and Trent, as a way to see if I like it. The guys were great - really helpful, no arrogance, felt really comfortable. well worth it and use quite a bit of the stuff i learnt on the Berg 300 and also on the mountain bike. Doing the intermediate course in a few weeks!
