Bought a new bike...

Bought a 1996 Gas Gas Pampera. Basically a trials bike set up like an enduro bike. Set up a little course in the back yard combining a rock path and a few small logs. Man I tell you I do not see how those trials guys do the stuff they do. I can't stop and balance the bike for more than .5 seconds...

Dennis G. had a Pampera a number of years ago I saw on a couple rides. Pretty neat looking bike. His came from the factory 100% street legal. There is a guy that rides a Trials bike at the river in Topeka frequently. He rides near the entrance where there is alot of big rocks. It's cool to watch him slowly ride up to about a foot short of the rock, balance himself, then all in one motion, "bunny-hop" the bike, gas it and clutch the front wheel up on the rock. With his momentum he's able to ride the rear wheel up. The stuff the Trials guys do is amazing.
