Tips on how to ride a trials bike in creek beds and slippery rocks. These intermediate skills are the next trials techniques to master before tackling the really tricky techniques. As always, thanks to Western Districts Trials Club members for their time and input in riding a trials bike in creek beds and rocky terrain! Visit our site at http://www.wdtc.org.au Creek beds and wet rocks can be extremely challenging and exhausting to ride in, but also a lot of fun - the balance and bike control you develop will transfer across to all other facets of your dirt riding. A quick note - creek beds tend to be environmentally sensitive areas so focus on your traction skills to minimize wheel spin and prevent erosion. A common problem is fixating on the rocks just before your front wheel, but you need to constantly look ahead to pick your lines in creek beds. Pick your line carefully to ensure a smooth a path as possible. Speed and other competitors are not factors likely to cause incidents, so the sport of trials remains very safe. Very few injuries are sustained due to the low speeds and "one at a time" use of sections by moto trials competitors. Learn to ride moto trials! In Australia about one thousand riders compete, - in Europe hundreds of thousands compete regularly. Maintain momentum as much as possible, and et your body move around a lot in response to it moving around - the longer you can stay on the pegs and balanced the better. Keep your turns, throttle and clutch control very smooth.

This involves nothing more than all the skills already mentioned, but with extra emphasis on maintaining momentum and avoiding rear wheel spin. When your legs are bent they will help to soak up the bumps and achieve a smoother ride. When your legs are apart, you are more likely to be able to recover from the bike slipping sideways without putting a foot down. It will be harder to recover from front wheel deflections and you'll probably have traction problems too if are a gear too low. But ride too fast and you'll push beyond your skill levels and end up out of control. You will also probably hang on too tightly and wear yourself out. There is a psychological aspect to riding creek beds - you need to relax and to some extent let the bike do what it wants, although your brain will be telling you to hang on very tightly and fight for control. Any jerky responses are likely to dislodge rocks and ensure a foot is needed on the ground. Riding in a higher gear and slipping the clutch will help a lot with this. Once the water gets quite deep though, it's probably best to slow down enough so you can see if there are any hidden logs or large rocks. Remember to watch the line your rear wheel will take in turns over rocks, and to back off the throttle if there is a large rock your rear wheel can't avoid. If you can pick a good line around water puddles, do so to keep your tires dry for better traction. Keep your body positioning toward the rear when possible. This keeps the front light and able to skip from rock to rock, and allows an easier recovery if the front wheel is deflected. If you do get off line, don't panic as you'll be surprised at the size of rocks you can hit and ride over as you apply all of these skills. Always ride with one finger on the clutch and front brake levers. Two strokes can be trickier in creek beds due to their snappy response but a higher gear and clutch slipping will help to keep traction. Ride too slow and the rocks will start to bounce you around too much. Try riding creek beds deliberately slowly - this will exercise your balance, body positioning, and clutch/throttle control to the max! Look for wet moss-covered rocks to really put yourself to the test. This style of riding also lowers your centre of gravity.Keep your legs bent and apart. It also provides extra traction for the rear wheel as it increases the "footprint" of the rear tyre if you are running reasonably low pressures. Usually the moment you start to have trouble in creek beds and on wet rocks it is because of incorrect body positioning! #trialstraining #trialstechniques #learntoridetrials TRIALS TRAINING MUSIC CREDITS This video uses music loops kindly allowed by www.looperman.com We would also like to thank the following for use of their Creative Commons music in other videos: Music: https://www.purple-planet.com Music: https://audionautix.com/ Music by Tobu: https://tobu.io Music: https://www.bensound.com/royalty-free...
