When the classic adventure film Endless Summer was released, it showed us a group of passionate surfers who traveled between the Northern and Southern Hemisphere in order to ride great waves all year long. Mountain biker Ben Hildred, who is the subject of the video above, applies much the same logic to his sport. For years, Ben has traveled to some of the great mountain biking destinations in the world, continually riding all year long in places like Whistler, British Columbia and Queenstown, New Zealand. This pursuit of his passion is impressive and amazing to watch, with a few life lessons to be picked up along the way too.
