Been on Trial . . . . .

Make that "I've been TO a trial"

Spent an enjoyable couple of hours today watching the Highland Trials Club members doing their "thing" whilst a chap local to me took an example of the trilas kind for a test ride, before he finally buy's one.

Got to admit that I was very envious of the skill level of even the youngest (sub 10 year olds ) rider as they popped over boulders, trees and many other naturally occuring obstacles that can be found littering the countryside.

A few photo's of the chaps doing their "thing" in and around the "pits" area, before they took off into the estate woods for some distance work over slithery terrain (it rained most of last night and this morning )

Watched a local club the youngsters are so impressive the way they handle their machines and pick the route.

Excellent photos

A mention should go to the ones that are not that good, bampots, just go for it. Looked very sore.

. . . . so impressive the way they handle their machines and pick the route. . . .

They are truely impressive.

What was equally impressive was one toddlers mum walking the route with him and pointing out this and that, then squealing with joy (could have been anguish ), when he successfully rode the section. Whole family affair, thats what trialling is
