DMacleod is totally correct, you will be hooked;
I am an addict for Trialsin'. I am a junkie. The only cure for me and my addiction is more riding, and to change my bike out each 2 or 3 years. I swear/pledge, I will not stop sleeping eating shitting Trials. I just gottaride!!!!
cheers.

Hello Roger,
"I have only had my motorcycle license for 1 year, and mostly ride a KLR 650 if that is relevant."
Not to sound rude, but your KLR is the furthest thing from trials. trialscanada.com has classified ads, and kijiji can be a good source for a used bike. The KT250 is a vintage trials, and they are quite popular still today.
Used trial bikes do exist, but sometimes it takes a while for a (good) one to come around. You may want to try posting an ad in kijiji, or in trials Canada, classified web site.
Keep in mind, buying used is always a gamble IMO. But, generally Trials Riders take very good care of their bikes, I rebuild mine each winter to get it ready for the next season. I usually will rebuild what ever needs before I sell my bikes, I don't want to promote a bad item.
Cheers, good luck....

Congrats Bouys, I'm really glad for the People, the Clubs, and the Sport. I just really wish I was there to attend, and even to participate. I really enjoyed doing events like this, and totally jealous of you's who were able to attend.
Cheers...

HELLO!!!! Anybody else out there?
Does nobody have any other replies, comments, suggestions.....ideas....
If I could move down there to help set this up, along with all other events in the future...dang rite I would, if it was feasible...but it's not. Our club is not very big, do we even have 50 members? I realize some may be saying to themselves, let someone else step up, why always the same guys doing all the work....
I still say, good luck....hope this takes off (I have designed, planned and rode many demo, with only two weeks notice....)

When I first received the email, I responded quickly, stating I should be able to attend the Edmonton Show, as well pull a trailer with some props ( planks, logs, cable reels). We (my Family) were planning a trip to California for the first week of January. As usual I have HIGH HOPES to attend this event, like all others.
Recently here I replied another email; stating Our Family trip to Cali is booked to fly out Jan 16,which apparently is the wkend for the show. The Calgary Show won't work for me, I would not want to commit for winter road conditions.
I understand the extensive organizing, commitment for planning an event, as I have in the past on similar events. It is very hard for one person to make this happen. I would really like to step up for that, being up here is to far away.
I really hope this pulls through, as it's a great opportunity for the club, the event and the audience.
