"Kelli, I don't think we've ever met, but I just checked out your website. It's an awesome site, and I can't believe everything you do on the bike as well as for the community. Just wanted to say props and hopefully we'll get to ride together in the future!"

"Keep doing what you do because your instruction has given me the confidence to ride. Before this course I could not ride the North Road Trail on Burnaby Mountain without stopping every 10 seconds from fear of not knowing what to do on the next section. Since I completed the course, I can ride that trail from top to bottom non-stop. I feel so much better as a rider, I even ventured out to Ned's last week with my brother who is an advanced rider... Thank you guys!!!"(L1PS)

I always look forward to a getaway in BC, and I've been lucky to do one most every year - but it wouldn't be the same if I hadn't got off to such a great start by having you guys get me rolling. I hope your efforts bring you great rewards - you've certainly brought me great satisfaction by introducing me to the riding in BC. Thanks.

Thank you SO MUCH for tonight's class!

I cannot even describe the elation that I am STILL feeling - what a truly amazing experience it all was for me today. :D :D :D I had so many breakthroughs tonight that I've lost count of them! I definitely pushed myself outside of my comfort zone and found that it was all okay. I now can't wait to go try out my newly found skills on the trails. If my entire course fee went straight into this one class, it would have been worth it!

WOW! Thanks again & looking forward to next week! :) Susan

I started riding mountain bikes in the late 80's and thought I knew the basics, but a one-day freeride clinic with Endless Biking has transformed my abilities. Jumps and drops that used to scare me are now my best friends.

EB's small classes, expert instruction and expansive knowledge base provide learning opportunities for every type of rider out there - from the newest beginner to old farts like me. I whole-heartedly endorse Endless Biking and can't wait to enroll in their progression course.

First of all...... good news from me is you would not believe, okay maybe you can lol, the difference in my riding after only that one 3 hour lesson !

We just wanted to thank you for our lesson and guide on Sunday, we had a wicked time and will definitely be back for some more private lessons and some of the other programs you offer.

Thanks again for yesterday's session. Absolutely great! You really broke it down to the basics and made it easy for me to get the concept . I'll be working on it on the trail, no question!

Endless Biking exceeds my expectations every time. I always have fun and I always surprise myself with my ability, which is wholly down to the way that the maneuvers are broken down by your excellent instruction. You make it so easy to learn, and have so much encouragement to give. I haven't got enough good words to say about you all!

Hey, I had such a great time at the Hot Wheels Camp and the braking lesson was my favourite (must be something to do with the instructor!). I don't think I've ever consciously gone down any slope in a slow and controlled manner before - it's amazing what a difference it makes when you do it with intent... You can't help but feel confident with such powerful women guiding you along - I took home a bit from each of them.

I need to express my excitement about the amazing weekend I had also. All four of you very patient and talented instructors were very inspriing. I was bouncing with... I couldn't wait to ride again on Sunday. Tonight I rode a local trail that has three challenging spots that I have stared at for the past three years and tonight I rode them all! The fever goes on!!!

Again thank you so very much or yesterdays lessonI feel so proud of my self and kind of "high" on the whole experience, I can tell you now that you will see me in your classes again.
You guys were great!!!!!!!!

Hey guys,
With regards to your "Feeling the Trail" riding tip article on NSMB, I finally applied that technique of using my arms and legs as suspension yesterday while riding Ned's and the improvement in my riding is just UNBELIEVABLE!

I smoothly rode over all sorts of terrain that used to unnerve me and sometimes cause me to get off my bike and walk certain sections. But yesterday I rolled over all of it without feeling uncertain at all. Because of this, I was able to achieve a type of flow and speed that I have NEVER experienced before!

Thank you so much for your help the other day. I learned a ton. We went out on the trails at UBC yesterday and it was a great ride! I felt really confident, kept up to the boys and generally rode their legs off!! Everything you taught me came into play. Having the seat higher for the ride to and from the park, lowered for the trails, ready position while flying along the little trails, jumps for getting up curbs (small ones...) & over roots and most of all speed control! Especially coming down the big hill by Spanish Banks with the surprise steps near the bottom... All in all a spectacular ride!

Thank you, thank you, thank you. I can't wait to get out again. Too bad about the whole working for a living thing, it sure gets in the way of my sports!

Thanks again for the great day..... it was definitely a highlight of the boys' trip. I know how much effort went into making it all happen, and I really appreciate it. I'll certainly be singing your praises.

Thank you so much for the private lesson we did in Whistler (and the pic, it's awesome!). I am starting to feel a huge difference in my riding, most notably with cornering. I have successfully ridden the switchbacks on Nicole's and the switchbacks on Pipeline (which Darren really tried to get me down on the Progression Sessions, but I just couldn't quite get it). I am absolutely ecstatic! Knowing how to position my hips more appropriately has made a tremendous difference in my cornering and I am so grateful.

Darren! Once again, thank you & Rick both for the AWESOME instruction on Saturday. We were all very impressed. Keep up the good work. It shows that a lot of thought and effort has gone into the class prep & program.

Thanks to all of the guides for your time and efforts, Jake really looks up to all of you and I couldn't be happier with that!

I thought your program content and personalities were an amazing combination, I got so much out of those two hours and I can't wait to put them to use on the hills! I'll be spreading the good word around the biking community to sign up with you guys!

Kelli, I am so glad I got to learn from you. Your energy was a huge part of my success. Thanks for pushing me when I needed it. In addition to being a great teacher you are just fun to be around and that made the camp a special place to be.

I want to thank you for the time you spent with us again. It really was absolutely valuable and usable stuff we learned (or you taught) us in our course. The fact that we all rode the parts of the hill other beginners might not was a direct result of good teaching during the skills and on hill sessions. I will most definitely be back for more courses and I will be recommending Endless biking to whoever I know that has an interest in mountain biking!

I completed your advanced progression in July and had a really great session with Ken and Rick. Awesome instruction!!!

I love to go biking again when before I was so frustrated every time I would go out. It's awesome! And just so you know, some things still stuck in my memory even in my frustration with my bike.... I just had to write to say thank you all for your awesome instruction, patience, professionalism and enthusiasm. I would recommend Endless Biking to anybody! Every time I'm riding I keep thinking I need to say thank you, so 'thank you'!

Just thought I would let you know I had a great time at the camp... All the skills we learned came into use, I found myself riding with confidence and on terrain I would not have considered prior to the clinic. Keep up the great work, you are awesome for the sport.

Since taking the participating in the skills camp in Cumberland my level of riding and confidence has gone through the roof. I am now riding bigger drops and stunts and harder lines than ever before. This is in part due to the skills I learned from you, but also the confidence gained from riding with all of you. Once again thanks for everything!

I really enjoyed my time with you (Kelli), it was awesome I learned so much, I can't wait to get out there again. I am going to spend my time practicing what you taught me.... you are truly amazing! You are a really great instructor.

You are wonderful instructors and work well as a team. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I have learned so much and am excited to try it out on the trails.

Thank you so much for yesterday I really had a great time and learned a lot. I really like that you had the camera/video to show me what I was doing wrong and right. I found it really helped to identify what I was doing.

You two were awesome! I learned so many valuable skills and am now so excited to ride more & show off my skills.

Kelli, I want to thank you & the other instructors for a fabulous weekend. It was my first experience at a Bicycle Skills Camp. I was taught the skills that I wanted to learn (manuals, 1/4 punches, 3/4 punches, riding the skinnies!! what a rush!). When I arrived home I told my husband what I had learned, so he went to Home Depot & purchased boards to make some ramps & bridges for me to practice on. He set them up today in our yard today & I have been showing off my new skills. Thank you again - I would definitely come to another one of your camps.

With the ever-growing popularity of mountain biking, more and more coaching and teaching clinics are becoming available in almost every part of the world. Endless Biking provides a huge array of clinics and coaching that can accommodate every level of rider in a non-intimidating environment where learning can only be limited by the fun you will have.

Thanks. It would have taken me 5 years to even look at the bigger jumps, let alone jump them... In 2 hours, I made it over 3! Golden!
