I don't see anything of Trial bikes anymore. My brother actually found a Honda TL125 in a creek years ago and restored it. It was a lot of fun to play around on but I was into motocross and hare scrambles back then.


I rode an RM125. Had a 77(B), and an 80 (X) Model.
I you can catch a National Trials, there's an x World Round Rider over from Europe here to compete in our National Series! He won on Sunday in Florida last weekend. Placed 2nd overall for the weekend. And he hasn't competed in 5 years!
I would love to get him to wear a Lily receiver, and record the crazy stuff they encounter.

The sport of Trials has been growing lately. I wanted a TL125 so bad, in the 70's that I could taste it. A friend rode one at the park and it looked like so much fun. Then a coworker of my Mom's had an Ossa Plonker.
I was hooked.
I'm trying to get my old air cooled Aprilia running so I can get some badly needed exercise.
Having a Lily to evaluate my riding errors (one right after another) would go a long way in relearning the sport.
I think I'll remain in the waiting mode for a purchase. Last year, $900.00, This year $700.00. Next year, used for 300 on E-bay. With lots of extra batteries, spare props.....
Call me cheap,

Judging by your collection of cameras and lenses you're not cheap. I've acquired way too much camera equipment over the years and most just sits on a shelf these day. The drone hobby is taking up most of free time. And money. My first one (a Phantom P2V) set me back about $800 then several hundred in various repairs thanks to my lack of flying skills. I'm doing better with my P3A but still had to replace the camera and gimbal. Again my fault. Came back to my landing zone and clipped a tree. Live and learn.

Most of my camera equipment was just bad GAS. Although I really do like my collection.
I have some lonely Lensbabys that are lacking attention.
GAS is really kicking in for a new Lily.

In addition to my digital and 35mm cameras I've got a Mamiya 1000s that I bought on ebay strictly for B/W in my darkroom. Well the darkroom equipment is boxed up after moving twice so the Mamiya sits on the shelf. Maybe one day I'll have a working darkroom again. Here's a shot from my Phantom last week. Just as I was taking off this group of ducks landed on the lake right in front of me. They didn't seem to mind sharing their airspace. I was going to buzz them lower but figured that if I spooked them and they took off it might get ugly.

Pretty Cool! Forwarded the video to my kid, he and his friends are big into GoPro's to cover their fishing trips, this is another level.
