Yeah...thats the game! Very addictive, and was the tip of the iceberg for me....now I just need to find myself a bike!

Hi folks. My names Tom, as you have probably guessed from the username! A good decade or so ago now when I was in my early teens, I practiced at Earl Shilton Trials Club in Leicester, I started off on an old JCM (not sure where that originates from), then brought a Fantic, and eventually treated myself to a lovely 99 Montesa 315R. Anyway....recently I have really started to have withdrawl symptoms, strangely enough, encouraged by an 'app' on my phone and have had decided that its time to venture back into it. Im going to be looking around for a bike within the next few months, but thought I would see how much the world has changed since the last time I was in it, and here seemed to be the best place to start! Wish me luck!

I got to a reputable level, never quite braved the concrete slab section but i managed most other areas with a few foot steps along the way. Just as i was starting to get the hang of things i had to leave though unfortunately. I broke my leg a year or two later though so need to see how i cope with that but fingers crossed it shouldnt be too much of a problem. Is there an area on the site regarding anywhere local that sells clothing and helmets, etc? i think that will be my first step to get the old dear on my side, my leg was broken in a motorbike accident so shes not too pleased but hay ho. As for the practice day on the 27th, i may well have to make an appearance! ill PM you closer to the time. Cheers for the welcome!

Hi folks My names Tom, im 21 and a previous member at Earl Shilton T.C. in Leicester. I used to ride a 99 Cota 315 but I havent trialed for a good 7 years now, i did up until i was about 13-14 but unfortunately had to give it up for a weekend job! Great compromise right! Anyway, im looking at starting up again sometime next year, need to do a bit of saving first to get hold of a few necessesities, like a bike and some new gear because i sold all of it when the Montesa had to go. Anyway, im thinking of getting a Sherco 2.9 about 2004ish. If anybody knows of anything going or anywhere to cheap gear, would be interested to hear from you. I'm a little out of touch Tom
