Hell Yeah! where's the Trials Kings when you need 'em?

and don't forget Eddie Tongue!

funny they're all UK riders? still prefer that UK style/mentality of riding over any of the french comp long bike UCI Koxx Coust riders.

Definitely trialsinmachine on this board. You little bastard, I can never rest with you around lol So I must go bigger Jailbreak bwahahaha

As for pros, I dunno they all have their ..aspects to riding that make them awesome. I think the guys I like watching most are demon watson, TRA, CLS and neil tunnicliffe. Because the moves are big and profound. Its shit that scares you to death to picture doing. So you get pumped.

I love hermance, baley, comas, benito, but the shity thing is they all just mainly have comp footage. And it takes an experienced rider to wrap your mind around half the shit they do.
Its not really exciting to watch sometimes. When they do their own little, practice vids. Then its really cool to watch.

But the guys like TRA, who pump out movies just for entertainment are the people I like to watch. God bless that f*cken crazy viking!


Oh yeah, and Nora tavasi... God only knows if she still rides, but when she did. She was pretty good! And very lovely to watch. I think she'd be 19 now, so it would be very nice scenary for a trials vid.

Same here, awsome riders. Vincent hermance is awsome but don't see so many videos of him. Felix Mucké is also mint trials rider been riding for over 10 years. Used to speak to him a fair bit and he seems an awsome rider.

~beav


yeah Vincent is good, but his riding style is soooo boring!

Eddie Tounge The UK rider for Paisley about 5 years back. He has the ultimate front wheel technique he would gap to nose manual pop into manual ten gap so much flow and liitle stopping.

when i first started reading this thread
i was laughing at your guys' responses and
stuff...thinking to myself that YOU'RE SUP-
POSED TO PICK ONE RIDER YOU DUMMIES!!!...
but after reading the whole thing...i'm not
so sure who i'd pick...

the toss up is between Hans Rey and Ot Pi

both were amazing when i first found out
about them, and i'm quite sure that they
still are...

but Hans Rey made an impact on the biking
community as a whole...doing riding styles
of all sorts ...i was always really impress-
ed by that

oh well...guys...i pick Hans Rey...

Ot Pi's funny accent always made me
not be able to take him serious anyhow

LOL
