Trials rider

Not Wylie 2 this one, but a friend. This gives you a bit of an idea what trials bikes are about and the lovely landscape we had on Sunday for the competition. Note that these bikes don't even have a seat! Velocity is walking pace, if that.

[Casablanca]

No seat?? Oh my! No chance of a rest then! Excellently placed shot.

[Dianne]

So interesting and a brilliant image. Fav

[Lena Nau]

Great action shot, love how the red pops out.

[Denise Wood]

Terrific action capture :)

[Ethel]

Who, I’d have a heart attack watching it. Great capture.

[Faye Turner]

Cool capture fav

[Dione Giorgio]

Fav. Wonderful capture, scene and pov. I guess it is very difficult to balance the bike without having a seat to balance yourself in the first instance.

[Valerie Chesney]

Wow! What a rugged landscape...No seat! Excellent capture..Fav

[KV]

Great composition, color, contrast.

[Lou Ann]

[Merrelyn]

Looks like a tough place to ride. It must be hard on the legs.

Love this, such a sharp image!

[Pyrrhula]

Great shot. Like the nature around too. Very beautiful.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

We had a friend who did this many years ago. He raced mostly on tracks though. I brought one of my sons to see him race and it was really exciting- and noisy! I like how you've framed this fellow through the trees and the bright colors suit the excitement of the race. Great shot!

[Spanner]

I used to do this - I was rubbish. I went to school with one of the best in the world.

[Sylvia du Toit]

[Glover Shearron, Jr.]

You picked a great spot to shoot this, and i love how you have therefore made the cyclist "pop" out of the image. Well done.

Great POV, colors, clarity ~ fav

[Monique]

Nice composition, attractive image

[Margo]

Super shot

[Wylie]

@spanner It takes a certain personality I think! Not Toni Bou was it?
@olivetreeann This type of riding is not done on tracks and is way slower. Just an excuse for a stable of different motorbikes!
@zambianlass trail bikes and trials bikes are very different I've learnt!
@ludwigsdiana he got much better as the day went on - been hard to practice under current conditions!

[tony gig]

Outstanding shot.
