Why you should want to play on a trials bike

This was my first, off the cuff attempt at taking bursts of photos with my cell. Had to merge two different subjects to get one continuous line, interestingly enough it flowed. The second half was represented by certain a DAMN rider... :rayof:

I like how it came out! It actually took me a couple times to realize the rider and bike changed (in my defense I was watching the video and reading the text at the same time :) ).

The guy with the white helmet clearly knows how to walk the bike.

It's a DAMN shame I didn't have a better camera app on my phone that day :boohoo:

For the record there was some DAMN fine footage of me flopping around like a fish missed too.

Ditto!

I haven't ever really tried to work on the nose wheelie/turn... I'm feeling peer pressure to start now. :lol2:
