Every year the sections get harder - in some cases terrifyingly hard to ordinary mortals - yet still the world's best trials riders conquer them. Giant boulders, flowing rivers, sheer climbs, 4-metre drops and turns that are tighter than the length of a trials bike produce many spectacular failures but the bravery and skill of the trials masters normally wins through in the end. This review of the 2003 World Championship sees the top men challenging some of the toughest, tightest and dirtiest terrain yet. Could Dougie Lampkin secure his seventh title in a row and equal the record set by the legendary Jordi Tarres, or would the Japanese upstart and team mate Takahisa Fujinami steal his first? The whole gripping story is told using innovative camerawork, exclusive behind the scenes interviews and authoritative commentary, meaning you won’t miss a second the action. So sit down, get your feet up (of course!) and prepare for the ultimate trial in strength, balance and concentration. This is trial biking. It’s where the impossible happens. |
