Hi Mark, I'm a trials beginner, having picked up a 2003 GG TXT 280 Pro a couple weeks ago to compliment the woods riding I do on a Beta 350.  I live in Westerville and would definitely like to connect with others in the area.

Just sent you a pm.

Thanks Steve, I'm a TI member and worked the Newark event.  I was just looking for some local riders to practice with.

I'm looking for people to ride with.  I'm also slowly turning my 2 acre horse pasture into a practice area.  If you are interested get in touch with me in a private message.

Thanks oni!  Wow revzilla id doing a fabulous job with their reviews!  I have't shopped with them in several years but may have to reconsider.

 

As far as the boot it sounds like it may be what i''m looking for.

 

Thanks again!

Order a pair of Forma Boulders last night.  Should be here Friday.  I decided to start there since they were the least expensive of the bunch.

Thanks for all the info!  I do agree with zippy and do feel it in my arches after a long time standing on the pegs and on landing.  I'll just find a place with a good return policy and order a few pair in to see what I like.  Thanks again!

I've been wearing Gearne Balance Oiled Boot and have had a couple of crashed that have crushed my foot.  The crash that started my foot pain ended with my toes to the dirt and heel to the sky and the bike falling on my heel and crushing my foot into the ground.  I'm pretty sure I broke a bone or two in that incident.  The other two were simple crush injuries with my foot laying along the ground and bike falling on the side of my foot. 

 

Do the Tech T's or any other Trials boot provide any more forefoot protection the Balance?  I can't find anyone within a reasonable drive that stock them in Ohio.

 

Thanks,

Mark

It was a great event! I'm a Trials Inc. member and I worked the event instead of riding.  Sure looked like a lot of fun sections!

[Hi there ...]

Congrats!  Sounds like we got started about the same time, bought my 4rt 2017-03-25 .  I've been mainly working on balance and conditioning.  I'm sore in a few places I didn't know I had.  But like you I'm having a blast with it!

I bought a set of these:

Makes it real easy to set up practice exercises.

 

[Hello!]
