Word is bond, Danny "Megaskill" Macaskill can ride a bike. Well.
Check some of these sites for more info on trials and good trials riders:

www.biketrial.com
www.themontyshop.com
www.trial-show.com
Trials riding is split into many different sub-categories. There's lots of different sized bikes from the very specific 20" wheeled jobbies with no seats to 26" wheeled montainbike conversions which all have their own pro/cons and styles of riding. Competion trials is a bit weirdy-beardy, too static and specialist to be a great spectator sport but there are some seriously sick street riders like Danny who are starting to get the exposure they deserve and their riding is much more entertaining and accessible.
Anyway, everybody knows trials riding is for queers and lasses.
Downhill/freeriding is where it's at. Get some dirt on your helmet.
