The trial is not about speed but rather about skill and finesse. Balance is the name of the game – touch the ground with your feet and you’re out! No obstacle can stand in the way of the trial riders. They might even tear straight up a nearly vertical wall – it’s incredible to watch how the trialists manage to jump the obstacles on their bikes or motorbikes.
