Red Bull Joyride
Crankworx is a global mountain bike festival tour that visits Australia, New Zealand, Austria, and Canada. The final stop is a 10-day festival in Whistler, British Columbia, at Whistler Mountain Bike Park, celebrating gravity-fed mountain biking.
The Canadian stop, Crankworx Whistler, is hosted by Whistler-Blackcomb each summer. The festival features formats like downhill racing, Dual Slalom, pump track racing, and Slopestyle, along with other events.
Since starting in 2004, Crankworx has grown into Whistler’s biggest annual festival and is often called the Super Bowl of mountain biking—the sport’s largest gathering. The event includes village-wide displays, trick demonstrations, races, entertainment, and many manufacturer booths, making it a major cycling industry gathering. Sponsors include CLIF Bar, Dose.ca, SRAM, Red Bull, and others.
The tour contains three series: the Crankworx Downhill World Tour, the Crankworx Pump Track World Tour, and the Dual Speed & Style World Tour. Riders earn points throughout the season toward a finale in Whistler, competing to become the King or Queen of the Crankworx World Tour.
