Grace (BikeHedonia) Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 I heard a rumour that the median age in this group is not that low, well I have no sympathy. I just spend a day in the jungle with a bunch of old men who throw themselves up cliffs every sunday for fun. Compete I cannot. Oh hell no. Learn, I will. I was going to add a video but apparently that format's not supported so you're just going to have settle for a photo and use your imagination. Anyway these guys are masters, not just of trials but enduro too. I have realised that I need these skills if I want to ride enduro with people who are bigger, stronger and longer of leg than me. Learning from an Japanese guy who's nearly 70, well, that's the day I don't get to complain about how everyone is bigger and stronger than me. These guys are legends. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Maximum result for minimum energy expenditure... when these guys ride enduro you see the difference between them and the guys who have never ridden trials. One group rides smoothly, in control, minimum energy; the others are smashing obstacles and making themselves tired... 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boboneleg Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 I recon I could get up that on that trials bike, I know @Sir Fallsalot could. That's not bragging just the fact that we come across rock steps when we're out trail riding, perhaps not that high but enough on a trail bike (there's a difference). More power to those guys , I'm 63 and I'm minus a leg but I still get down and dirty 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cupid Stunt Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 All the best enduro riders started out doing Trials, David Knight, Graham Jarvis and many others MX riders simply cannot handle the gnarly stuff, been out with a few and they always head for the nearest fire road to get them home by mid morning LOL 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
