Any trials riders here?

I've always had a hankering to try but never had a chance.
Wondering about starting out, bike recommendations etc.

Indeed!
The guy is an enigma though, can't say I blame him what with his internet fame and having kidlets.

I remember watching the trials riders in the 70's. I'm sure the bikes have greatly improved.
Balancing a 350# machine going over logs and rocks = crazy.

Shipping to Canada might be a killer

It's not a street bike, so no registration? Get one to the border, and find a trail, hello

The US/Canada border is closed to all non-essential travel...

David, have you looked up any Canadian trials riders associations? http://www.trialsbc.com
I would take in a few events as a spectator and get the skinny from current trials riders.
You might even go home with a bike.

I'm checking that out. Looks like most/all events have been Covid-cancelled.
