Travis Johansen, TJsPhotography, took these photos (click to enlarge) and videoclip of TTC's Dan Brown with grandson Joey on the prototype OSET electric trials bike. Dan wrote, "The bike was left with us for demo by Ian and Oliver Smith. At the time of the video, Joey had about 20 minutes on the bike and had never ridden a motorized bike without training wheels before. So, it shows how easy this bike will be for 4 year olds."

Flickr photo group for WTC/USGP
 
As you can see in the upper right sidebar here on the TTC blog, we're experimenting with using a World Trials Championship, USGP Flickr group to display people and rider photos for the upcoming World Round (less than two weeks).

(Note: the photos there now are from the 2004 World Round in Duluth. We'll replace those Real Soon Now.)

Our plan is to encourage people to add their photos to their own Flickr account albums/sets and then also submit them to the World Trials Championship, USGP Flickr group.

We'll ask people to tag them with either "motorcycle trials riders" or "motorcycle trials people" so that anyone can use one or both Flickr Badges in their website's sidebar. The Badges changes as new photos are added and the web page is refreshed.

Let us know if you've got ideas on how we can improve this approach.
