I think Mick Andrews as to be on that list, specially because he was and still is an ambassador to trial. Is riding technique is not flashy but  to this day, the base of motorcycle riding. The fact that it is so easy to talk to him and is generosity for advise set's him appart.

Some great names listed there folks!

But if you think about innovation, Its my opinion there are only 3 stand out riders (at least from the early eighties onward)

Eddie Lejeune - perfected and/or improved by the likes of Michaud, Saunders, Tarres & co...

Jordi Tarres - perfected by and/or improved by the likes of Colomer, Lampkin, Fuji, Raga & co ...

Toni Bou - copied by the likes of Raga, Cabastaney, Fuji & co...  &  the rest of the current generation

These three riders changed the style of riding for their generation and each taking trials riding to a new level. All the other great riders either followed the current style or improved on it.
