Trials Dvd's

[rodjackson]

Hi all:

Back in the 80's, when I was a "real" trials rider (not the imaginary rider I have de-volved into in recent years.....), I used to get these great European and Japanese trials videos from Cosmopolitan Motors (the old US Beta importer). There were compilations of World Rounds, Beta factory stuff and Japanese instruction tapes. When I joined Trials Central, I eagerly went through all of the great videos posted (thank you, Andy!) and have found that I need more. I would like to find outdoor world champ DVD's, top rider practice sessions, UK or Euro training instruction. I am a bit isolated now that my favorite nearby riding areas have gone under state control and we are told to stay on their GPS'ed trails (boring!) or face a huge fine. Subsequently, the local club is having the majority of events a couple of hours or more away from where I live. I am hoping that if I put enough time into "Zen training" I will once again get the big itch and have the notion to drive far away to go riding with my old buddies. In the meantime, I am thoroughly enjoying catching up on the last few years of observed trials through this fine website.

Where can I find cool trials DVD's?

Youtube is the wave of the future and you can see the trialers of most videos up there before you buy.

If your like me i need those videos to get me through the winter months.

I too remember when cosmo was the place to get all of your stuff.
