@mike300406 After riding the SWM "Jumbo" model, Bernie rode briefly for Italjet, then Yamaha, and in 1987 he rode for Fantic.

It was great to go to trials and see the many different bikes, it's a bit bland now.

Great video !

I did trials in the uk starting in 1980 on a montesa/honda 125 it is really popular over there in europe

Ya I get frustrated when I tell people I prefer trials and they just look at me and have no idea what I'm talking about. The US has very little appreciation for trials, yet they are the most alterrain vehicle ever made.

That's some talent. Why don't we see more of this on tv?

[GASGASinfo]

In Europe Indoor and outdoor Trials is popular on TV and the indoor series fills stadiums in European cities, but I think Americans have the "need for speed" that the sport of TRIAL does not supply. In fact, most Americans find Trials to be somewhat boring. Certainly not as stimulating as SuperCross, Monster Truck or WWF show...

Thank you for watching!

@GASGASinfo How can say that? Supercross is boring, Monster trucks are daft and pointless, and Wrestling is fake! Trials is great fun, far more skillfull than the others!
