December 3, 200520 yr Can anyone recommend a basic trials riding techniques DVD. I need all the help I can get.
December 3, 200520 yr The COtswold Way...AND Trial No Stop?...by Steve Saunders They can be bought from bvm-moto.co.uk WELL worth the money..you will learn alot. I also have a copy of the Mick Andrews DVD..which you can also buy from BVM..and is again..well worth it. How about going to one of Steves training schools also??...then there'll be nothing stopping you!
December 3, 200520 yr The Mick Andrews DVD is ok in terms of information but its just the video dumped to DVD, and makes no use at all of the facilities a DVD might provide. Suggest the other DVDs mentioned are slightly better value.
December 3, 200520 yr Ryan youngs dvd i would also say ive got it use it all the time , to work out how to start doing things and helping me.
December 3, 200520 yr There are a good number of books with loads of photos and info. The best book for beginners (or the plain useless like me) is probably ''Motor Cycle Trials,techniquies and training by Lane Leavitt and Len Weed (1978)it's avaialble but fairly rare on Ebay for around 20-25 beer tokens its based on twin shocks but gives a breakdown on how to ride and the reasoning behind it. The more common Observed Trials ( 1985) by 'world champion' Bernie Schreiber and len weed is again twin shock based and is similar to the earlier book but has more focus on Schreiber himself and his achievements. Going rate on the bay is 99p to 25 quid Books by other 'stars' of the day tend to be photo opportunities for their latest manufacturer and lack the 'how to' that might actually improve your riding Sadly there seems to be a gap in the market for a book or dvd , probably as the market is so small, for a how to prepare and ride a modern bike in clubmans trials. I have not seen the Ryan Young dvd but have seen the price..
