Trials video - AFL field trials...

I finally went out for another proper trials ride for pretty much the
first time in 3 months or so. I was getting worried because I thought
I'd turned completely uncoordinated but I was riding a bit better today
and had a lot of fun. I found a few nice lines, a couple of which were
very me and also took the camera along with me.

The last line I found bloody difficult but I got it eventually. I was
sweating so much I could feel the salt crystals on my face...and it's
meant to be winter!

I also got the news that this new trials demo team I'm part of with some
bike friends is sponsored by BBB who import bike parts or something
along those lines. We each get some pedals, clothing, and sunnies!
Pretty exciting, and it means we'll have more demos to do which should
be fun.

Anyway, here's the video...
'Plain version' (http://tinyurl.com/cuk6e) - 9.5MB, 1min20sec
'With music and more editing' (http://tinyurl.com/8gnq9) - 9.5MB,
1min20sec, soundtrack is "Klunky" by Directions in Groove.

Enjoy,
Andrew

Thanks guys. Don't be fooled though, I only hop seat in because I'm
uncoordinated hopping seat out. :)

o, i know you have a lot of experience

it's just that most guys w/ tons of experience hop seat out
and it's refreshing to see someone who's awesome hop seat in (and get
serious height too)

you make it look easy man

Excellent, Andrew! I never realized it before, but I don't think you hop
seat out in any of your videos.

I'm jealous of your "winter" - green grass and sunshine doesn't qualify
for me.

I very rarely hop seat out, only for heights that push my limits. I'll
get around to getting the feel for seat out one day I guess, but I just
feel so much more stable seat in.

I miss summer, I like when the sun rises early and sets late, and I like
the warm weather although this winter has been very mild. I hope that
doesn't mean too many 40 degree (104 F) days. :)
