Andrew's first ever trials event!︱Cross Training Trials

Andrew is a trials virgin as it's his very first trials event! Trials bikes are specially made high-tech machines. They are usually single cylinder, liquid cooled engines, around 250cc capacity. Trials bikes have lots of ground clearance and suspension travel. Hydraulic disc brakes - front and rear. Trials riders in the top classes attempt seemingly impossible obstacles, and in the process perform some of the most amazing skilled and trick riding - including air turns, bunny hops and bouncing the front and rear wheels during turns.
