The Very Best of Crankworx 2011

The scale of the terrain matches the caliber of the competition; the very best come to BC to tail-whip and in the 10 days of the festival, legends are born.

This has been a huge week for bike nuts, with the 98th Le Tour de France coming to a close on the same day as Crankworx is wrapping up. It looks like July is the unofficial bike lovers month. Fine by me seeing as I enjoy few things more than a good bike ride through Seattle on a summers day.

So what kind of bike nut are you? Trail heads and tail-whips or distance and speed?
