A fantastic day with James at RideBC. James is quickly able to put you at ease and evaluate your riding so that you ride trails well suited to your skill level. For me, it was a perfect combination of flow, tech and slabs (with a little bit of discrete coaching…. a small but critical body positioning tweak).
Plus we rode “The Donut” - the trail built by James. An awesome day and highly, highly recommended. Many thanks James. A fantastic day of riding.

We've ridden with James from Ride BC the past 3 years. You can't do these slab trails justice by showing up and riding blind. James is an excellent coach and guide who will bring you on awesome trails (both the famous ones and off the map) and teach you how to ride them safely. You will do much more than you could have done safely alone.

I have left each year a much better rider. The bottom line is you shouldn't ride Squamish for the first time without a guide, and James at Ride BC is one of the best. Plus, he's a nice guy that builds trails and will give you good recommendations.
