cheers for th advice guys now i just need to find a bike at th right price and condition i have said before dont have a very big budget at the mo but im sure i will find one eventually... cant wait to get one and get out there and start learning.

ive ridden a ty250 but was many years ago well about 15 it was when i was about 11 my uncle was teaching me to ride only went on it once or twice i lived too far from him to carry on learning but i have now decided to take the plunge and get one myself and try teach myself still on the look out for a bike though at the mo

well that is the main thing that it is legal can you go to berko at anytime when your a member or is it only certain times its open

ok thank you for your help nigel i will defo be contacting berko there ground looks really good but think i defo need to get the basics down before i go there as i said before looking out for a bike at the mo then gonna get my balance and figure of 8s and stuff sorted on tarmac then will try a few practices before entering a trial. Hope to see you at a trial in the not too distant future thanks again for your advice.

Is the place you know at denham part of HUX cos i contacted them looking for somewhere to ride and they told me there is nowhere they know of and to try outside the m25 confused me at the time as i know they have practice ground in denham. cheers for any info you have.

denham isnt that far from me i work in iver which is about 10mins from denham and that takes about 20mins to get there is there somewhere there

thanks guys i did contact hux but they said they didnt know of anywhere in my area will get in touch with berkhampstead as soon as i have a bike and i am competant enough for a trial as i have very little experience at the mo thanks again for the info though

hi guys im just gettin into trials not yet bought the bike but should have got one in the next couple of weeks ...... anyway my dilema is now finding somewhere to ride well learn to ride in the area i have contacted local council, the police, even the acu to see if they could point me in the right direction but all have come to nothing i do have a small piece of land (lock up garage area) behond my house which will do when i 1st get the bike but has anyone got any ideas where else i can get info from or even better know anywhere in the area that i could go. I have found one place near leatherhead but looking for somewhere a bit closer im literally 5 mins from heathrow airport cheers in advance adam

thanks again guys for your advice much appreciated - another question for you all though would an older bike such as a montesa cota or an old fantic or even a yamaha ty be ok to learn on or am i better going for a newer bike such as late 90s gas gas etc. also max cc to go for too. again sorry for all the questions just wanna get as much info as i can before buying one. cheers adam

hi thought i had alredy posted this topic but cant seem to find it so here goes again. I have said my situation previous but have been speaking to a friend over the last few days and just wondered what you guys thought ..... I have very little experience of riding a geared bike basically a complete beginner however i have a keen love of trials so the time has come on my life for me to learn finally my question is as a 26yr old with little experience of bikes would i be better learning to ride a geared bike such as a general field bike or could i learn on a trials bike and just practice and learn until im competant for a club trial could do with some help with this please as not sure wether i could do this or wether my mate who doesnt really like trials is just trying to get me more into just thrashing round a field which i have no interest in doing thanks in advance and sorry to be a pain with all my questions just dont really have much access to info as just starting out.

hi everyone does anyone know of any forthcoming trials due to be shown on tv cheers adam

thanks again for the advice im still on the look out for a cheap bike any ideas where to look for them as i only know of ebay and pistonheads wanna get a cheap one to begin with so i can see if i like it or not if it turns out i do i will upgrade once i am better at riding
