case in point. fixed trick riding is so ludicrous that even a professional trials rider can only bounce around on some boxes and cruise shitty wall rides. At least he knows how to ride a bike to begin with though... because what really gets me is this attitude in trick riding: "cant ride a bike? In your twenties and want to start technical riding now? Join us! We're progressing!" It's very very similar to triathaletes. "suck at riding a road bike? Don't even own one yet?? get a tri bike and some running shoes! We run and swim *and *we steer the bike with our elbows!!"
