Trials riding?

If in doubt, or it doesn't seem to fit elsewhere - put it here.

Hello John,
I find myself watching YouTUBE a fair amount, and there are lots of trials videos. The videos with the latest and greatest are not always the ones I enjoy the most, but the classic and vintage classes I more identify with. The vintage trials is very active in the UK and Europe. "Twin shock" and air cooled machines from the 60's and 70's competing in a style that makes me want to find an old Bultaco, like I once owned.

Once broke an ankle when I stepped off my Bultaco trials bike and landed on the back wheel. Foot ended up between the wheel and shock. Someone pulled the spark plug wire off to kill it. I still have my Alpina but it's not a real trials machine.

The Washington trials club, "Puget Sound Trialers" is having a trials event in the Poulsbo area, February 21st, Sunday. I'm planning to go along with a friend.
