When I first discovered bike trials in 2017, it was difficult to find resources for learning bike trials. There were some scattered video clips on YouTube and a few online forums, but I had to really dig to find each piece of information. In late 2017 I discovered the book Your Complete Guide To Trials Riding by Julien Happich and the companion website (TrashZen). Finally a comprehensive resource!

The book aligns with my mission to spread awareness of trials biking to the general public and to help prospective new riders get started, which is why I am now a US distributor for this guide. There’s nothing else like it in bike trials!

Read the full post to learn more about the book and why other riders and I consider it a great resource:

Your Complete Guide to Trials Riding provides a path and framework for learning trials, with everything packed into one convenient reference.

Ever wondered how to find bike trials events to ride in or how to spread the word for a trials event you're hosting? Fellow trials rider Tadas Labudis did as well, so he created the Trials Calendar to provide information about trials events world-wide. It's pretty cool!

Whether you’re hosting a bike trials event or want to ride in one, the Trials Calendar provides event and organization information for FREE in one place.

Robbie Pfunder and Ronnie Traba rode with us a couple weeks ago on the rocky Narragansett coast! It's great sharing an epic riding spot with friends, and catching up with fellow riders you don't see very often!

1st attempt: Well that's not what I expected! 😂 2nd attempt: Let's try a different approach.

This was the end of the ride yesterday, when it was ludicrously hot and humid. I had nothing left at this point, so can't believe I actually got this uphill line!

This was scarier than I expected. Took a few practice attempts. It's fairly low consequence, but for some reason - even though it was insanely hot - I didn't want to end up falling into the (admittedly shallow) water. I also didn't want to get my rear rims wet, which I amazingly (mostly) accomplished.

I've created a playlist for my 2026 Bentonville Bike Fest trials content, as well as some trials videos from other folks. Enjoy!
