Andrew Chai rides an Aorta mod (had a Zoo until recently) and excels in side hops onto just anything. He is a regular host from these sunday Shell meetings in London (the whole place is a fantastic indoor zone, apparently doomed to demolition).
...The Chai, munching some jelly tablets
for energy intake (dreadful orange taste,
don't try this at home).
He's quite blunt, trying out incredible gaps while the rest of us look all scared, in
anticipation of a major crash. The chap hooks the front wheel like if there was glue on his tires...
Got into trials only a few years ago, after seeing a demo from legendary Cesar Cañas in home town Singapore.
Swinging from a pedal hop to the front wheel...Look at that block...That's the man's full height, but hey, that's not gonna stop him, is it?
Just need to hook the front wheel or grip the pedals on that edge...and done deal.
Looking at the next thing.
Just can't wait to see more action in a next London ride... thanks for the guided tour...
