Hi all,
I have a friend that rides trial bikes competitively. She is currently the Australian Champion and has done well on the world tour as well. Only problem is it's a sport that not a lot of people know about or possibly not that interested in so funding is very difficult. She usually has to raise her own funds to make it to the world comps. It would be great if you could give her video a vote at this website: http://www.visioningtheoutdoors.com/...s-choice-film/ Her video is the "Trial and Error" one. Any prize money that is won will be used to get her to the world comps. Her facebook page is https://www.facebook.com/janine.jungfels.j9 Go and have a peek at what she is all about. I'm sure she would appreciate the votes.. Admin, if this is against forum policy please remove it.

I just watched a bit of a video on that guy and he's got some skill that's for sure. Whilst speaking to Janine she has said that the strength of the men helps them significantly. In comps where she is also competing against men she has done extremely well. If I remember correctly she placed second in an Australian comp that had men in it. I could never do such a sport...it looks incredibly dangerous. I take my hat off to her.
