logs, or pallets to give a great variety of training in even a small area. Speaking as a young man of 57 years of age, I can assure you that Trials is the fountain of youth for riders of all ages, with fantastic exercise and the ability to fi nd a lifetime of challenges at your own personal level of en- joyment. Even at my age, I'm still learning and adding skills to my repertoire on the bikes with every session. Trials helps keep my mind, body and attitude young, and how can you beat that? Ok, so I hope I now have some of you at least a bit curious about how Trials might be a good fi t and your riding enjoyment in the future! Please feel welcome to reach out to me anytime and we will see about getting you out for some test rides on these ultra-cool dirt bikes of Trials. And one more thing I have to mention here is that the People of Trials are among the most fun and positive folks you could ever hope to meet! A er all, it takes a special kind of individual to look at an obstacle and say, "I didn't make it the last 16 tries, but I think I can get it right this timeā¦lol." e cama- raderie is one of the best parts of riding dirt bikes and Trials has some of the best out there! In future months, I hope to bring you some pics and specs of some of the newest off erings in this growing sport, as well as some coverage of some beautiful and aff ordable Vintage Trials bikes. In the meantime, I welcome any questions you read- ers might have for me here, and I will do my best to answer them along the way. See ya soon, Stu March/April 2017 31
