Jack Learning Pedal Kick and Zap Tap

This was original posted in my other blog on 29th June 09.
Last Saturday I decided to reward myself by getting a new pair of 661 shin guards from TTDI's KSH Bike shop. My old shin guards (which I have repaired many times over) have saved me from much agony and I felt that aside from the helmet, they were the most important equipment for learning biketrial... :-)… Continue

Jack Things I learned from participating in a BikeTrial Competition

This was original posted in my other blog in March 09.
First off, why did I participate in a BikeTrial competition? Firstly, I want to see what it feels like to ride a section other than the ones I setup myself... LOL. Secondly, I can learn so much from so many riders by just watching them ride a section, and then trying myself. Thirdly and most importantly, it is just so much fun!!!! Here is… Continue

Jack Forget Natural or Urban, Learn the Techniques First

In my previous blog post I have been talking about setting up a semi permanent BikeTrial training ground using wooden pallets or any other suitable materials. I have been trying to convey this idea to various friends and riders. Unfortunately, most of them do not feel the same way... LOL. But some of the responses were very supportive... :-) The most common responses I received were that they prefer "natural"… Continue

wan razali biketrial scene in Malaysia

Im really glad to have met someone who is really interested in the sport of biketrials in Malaysia. Shahrul is really genuine in promoting the sport. I hope the locals boys would take up this opportunity to learn the rope of riding trials and maybe compete in future International biketrials competitions. It might be too late for me to compete but Im encouraging my sons to take it up seriously. What we need now is to have a weekly group riding where we can progress faster by learning from each ot… Continue

Jack Learning the Side Hop

I have been trying to learn the "side hop" for the longest time. Ever since Oct 23 last year, I have been trying and trying and trying... to learn this elusive skill. During that time, I basically did what I called the "chicken" side hop... LOL. Basically, I just pulled the handlebar up and backward to pivot back, and then hopped onto the wooden pallet. It looked nothing like the Ryan Leech's Side Hop video.… Continue

Jack Setting Up a Semi-permanent Place for BikeTrials Training

For the longest time, I have been repetitively watching a lot of competition videos from BikeTrials.com and one of my favourites was the Bar-H Bash Competition, where they rode man-made sections. That gave me the idea and the yearning to want to set up a mock section similar to that at home.

And so I began collecting wooden pallets, starting with those, which I took… Continue
