Eastside Bike Guides
|
EBG has been offering mobile bike repair, instructional and guide services since 2012. As a true "Service Only" shop EBG doesn't sell bikes and only carries the most common repair parts. We have access to whatever our customers need but we feel that there is more benefit in helping cucstomers source thier own specialty parts and learning how thier bikes work. Bicycle service is all we do and all we've ever done. |

Chris has been a mountain biker in Mount Washington Valley region or over 30 years. In 1987 he took his first "Back Country: mountain bike ride was up Piper Trail over the summit of Mt. Chocorua and down Jim Liberty trail. He grew up riding trails of that technical level but enjoys all aspects of bike riding. What started as a way to feed his need to ride bikes turned into a career in the bike industry. Starting as mechanic, he became a head mechanic and service shop manager for a decade at Joe Jones. He then moved onto distribution as a wholesale DH/BMX/Freeride buyer/importer. All the while freelancing in various local shops as a mechanic to keep his mechanic skills up to date.
His work has afforded him opportunities to ride in some of the most famous riding areas in the U.S and Canada with some of the best riders in the world. in 2011 he started his own company offering mobile mechanical service and mountain bike instruction as an IMIC/IMBA ICP Level 2 instructor and a PMBI certified instructor. His experience both on and off the bike in addition to his training an his intimate knowledge of the local trail networks enable Chris to offer an in depth and broad spectrum, customizable and personal instruction experience.
Chris has also worked as a professional mountain bike trail designer/builder, As a builder he's worked with Attitash Mountain Bike Park designing and building much of the most technical portions of the network. He's designed and coordinated trail builds for the US Forest Service, The Nature Conservancy, Tin Mountain Conservation, The Town of Conway and NEMBA and does so in an effort to support the trails as much as they've supported him. Every season you will find examples of his work one the trails.
