The classic Crankworx round in Whistler barely needs an introduction, such is the legendary status of the world’s largest mountain bike festival. This race always pushes riders to the limit, rightfully earning the nickname ‘Crankzilla.’ Expect a long day in the saddle for this one day extravaganza, but it'll all be worth it to hit those iconic Whistler trails.

The Saturday Bell Helmets Canadian Open Challenger Enduro race will feature a selection of the stages being used in Sunday's EWS race - four stages of enduro action on some of the best single-track, technical terrain in the world.  This is every rider’s opportunity to experience a more relaxed, fun format without biting into thefull meal deal right out of the gate.

• Ride a selection of the best stages
• Ride with your friends, no fixed stage start times
• No rules against outside assistance and no bike marking, take your time, have some fun
• Select your own start time for the day, and as long as you complete the whole course within the designated time, you can go as fast (or slow) as you like up the hills
• Get a time to compare yourself against the pros who’ll race the same stages the following day
• Relax on the Saturday night, put your feet up after your day in the saddle and watch the EWS race on the Sunday
