Title: Father and Son Trials Noobs Post by: snowdave on May 16, 2018, 05:29:24 PM My son and I rode D16 hare scrambles last year and are thinking of trials in the future. Our H/S bikes won’t cut it (KDX200 and KX85), so I need some input on how to try/start and what bike(s) we might want to look for. I have a couple old Bultaco Alpinas I could attempt to use, but what options exist for an 11 year old? The cheaper, the better. Would love electric, but I suspect that is out on our peanuts budget.
Also, any option to attempt trials before investing in a bike? We live just outside Madison and don’t mind traveling up to two hours for events, practice, etc. Title: Re: Father and Son Trials Noobs Post by: motodave63 on May 17, 2018, 07:36:10 AM I don't have have anything for sale but do live near Sun Prairie if you would like to try riding. I have from novice to expert sections in the yard. Give me a call if you are interested. 608-807-8169
Later Dave Title: Re: Father and Son Trials Noobs Post by: snowdave on May 20, 2018, 11:10:28 AM Thank you Dave. You are the second person to suggest an 80 or possibly 125 and to attend the Baraboo event. I have put it on the calendar and hopefully we can make one of the two days. I heard the days are the same in terms of schedule and only the course differs, so either day should be fine?
Title: Re: Father and Son Trials Noobs Post by: motodave63 on May 21, 2018, 02:23:57 PM Either day would be fine to attend. The difference between the two days are Saturday runs from approximately 11 AM to 4 PM, whereas Sunday runs from 10 AM to 2 PM. And we try not to re-use the same sections from one day to the next.
