EB Riding Tip:

Cornering tip: To develop solid cornering skills for moderate to high speed flat corners, try rotating your torso to look into the desired direction of your turn with 'all 3 eyes'. As you increase speed, get lower and lower to keep a low centre of gravity, to be able to lean the bike over farther to gain traction and maintain momentum! Have fun!

Wade wants to help riders achieve their riding goals on the North Shore and is available for private and custom bookings through Endless Biking. Book your session now, there are not many available!

"I've been extremely lucky to have had the opportunity to ride my mountain bike all over the world, and also to have dabbled in every aspect of mountain biking. That and the fact that I call the "North Shore" home give me an all-encompassing perspective on this wonderful sport, and I love to share that knowledge with riders wanting to improve their skills. Each discipline of riding relates to the other, and until you have an understanding of this, your improvements will be limited. I want to help you reach your goals!" -Wade Simmons


Private Lessons with Wade offer riders a chance to take their riding to the next level. Add some helmet cam and digital photos to the mix and you've got the makings of an experience!
