Crankworx BC Wraps Things Up at SilverStar Mountain Resort
Well riders, with us running the last of our events at SilverStar Mountain Resort, that’s a wrap on Crankworx BC.
Overflowing with incredible trails and epic views, we can’t think of any better place than SilverStar Mountain Resort to have officially closed out Crankworx BC.
It was an insane four days of racing, with riders often having to brave the elements in the name of all-time-fall-time riding.
But… even in the wettest, muddiest conditions, riders always brought good energy and even better vibes to the trails!
From running the expertly designed Dual Slalom course (courtesy of Bas van Steenbergen) in a torrential downpour to seeing the brand new Title Slopestyle course be put to work for the very first time to exploring a local BC cidery in Vernon, we really did it all.
Take a look at what’s been some of the best few days out here on the road…
Tegan Cruz celebrated his Sweet 16! So of course we had to get him a cake…
The Slopestyle crew took advantage of a rainy day and explored the local BX Press Cidery & Orchard.
Things got a little muddy for Bas van Steenbergen as he rode the Specialized Dual Slalom SilverStar course, expertly built and designed by himself!

And in true Mikey Haderer fashion. The speedo was pulled out.

Nothing was going to make our time here at SilverStar Mountain Resort anything less than perfect (even with Mother Nature’s many attempts!).
To say that Crankworx BC was one of our favourite adventures to date would be an understatement… and wrapping things up SilverStar Mountain Resort was simply the cherry on top.
Our time on the road, travelling through some of British Columbia’s most incredible mountain biking destinations, has been, well… epic.
We’re not exactly ready to move on from this road trip just yet, so don’t mind us if we watch some event replays until it’s time for Crankworx Rotorua!
