(frustration over a broken wrist, the whole summer of 1998 wasted...)
Initially, it was pretty much a personal web page... with most photos from Brussels were I lived at the time. Then I moved to Barcelona (too much rain in Belgium I say, although Pepito tends to deny this observation).
...riding in the rubber zone at Premia de Dalt...
With more riders demonstrating the moves, TrashZen expanded and became a bit more complete.
After 2.5 years of fantastic trials riding conditions, I moved again to...hemm...sunny Cambridge.
Apparently,
there isn't just ultra-clean and tidy British lawn. Came more urban riding in the horizon, and long adaptation to the UK-style riding.
I did ride a lot on the Toxsin. Recently changed to the Atomz (white frame)
I have moved back to France in 2010, Paris is a big enough city to have some decent urban riding I guess.
When I get an idea on how to explain a move or someone shows me a new technique,
I try to share the info. Not always easy to get some good pictures though, but modern digital cameras are just amazing...
See more pics...
Check out my little vids...
Precision stop on the front wheel
before a wheel swap to back wheel
Static hop with a front wheel hook.
Wall tap, just below the edge.
...Flying in the rubber zone..
Sidehop to concrete... edges keep you sharp.
...indoor zone in Premia de Dalt....
Some bike parking in the way...
...wheel transfer to the log edge..
gappishly gapping... I love wood logs
Another gap to front wheel.
...Crossing a big gap, from the box to the rail.
