Mike, Thanks for the info. Saw that on the local craigslist just minutes before. I wish I could make it up there but unfortuntely I already have plans for the weekend. I will be sure to check back for future events. Aside from craigslist does anyone have suggestions for other trials specific classifieds?

Just thought I would introduce myself here as I have interested in trials bikes for a few years. I am now determined to purchase my first trials bike within the next few months...as soon as I can save up enough. I have never ridden a trials bike but I rode a lot of BMX and FMB and learned some of the basic trials bicycle principles over the years. I may be underestimating a 150lb motorcycle but I assume some of the same principles apply. I grew up on dirt bikes and ride on the street but this will be my first trials experience. Open to suggestions and advice on purchasing my first trials bike, as well as any input you all might have regarding the trials community out here in California...specifically the SF bay area. BTW Im 6'2" 205lbs it that matters and have a budget of 2.5-3k. Thanks in advance.
