What is Bike Trials?
Bike trials descend from motorcycle trials and challenge riders to clear obstacle sections — logs, boulders, pipes, walls — without touching feet to the ground. Each dab or paddle costs points; the rider with the lowest score at day's end wins. Riders like Danny MacAskill and Andrei Burton have taken the sport into internet consciousness.
