Just who do u think are the best riders to ever saddle up?

Give reasons to why you believe so...

No bashing riders...

Wade Simmons- He is the god father. He went big and with style. He stomped the moreno valley road gap when bender couldnt. Rode lines deemed inpossible.

Dan Cowan- Rides the absolute craziest contraptions. Goes huge of 3 inch wide planks, has the best balance of any rider ever ride the shore

Bender- Without him suspension and bikes wouldnt be to where they are today. His methods are questionable but he pushed the sport to where it is today

Dave Watson- He did a few of the biggest stunts ever back in the day. A huge step down in kranked 3 i believe and a huge road gap at the very end. He turned a new chapter in the sport.

ian, go to hell.

I completely agree with you, norco-dude
Wade is also one of the nicest guys you will ever meet. His own energy and enthusiasm is contagious and makes you want to ride more even when you feel your about to die from exhaustion.

funny when people slag off bender; he was doing things on a mountainbike that no one imagined possible or would even dare; he was a true pioneer of this sport and you should be thankful as he played a massive role in how this sport has been shaped of late!!!
