    Crankworx Rotorua

    April 2, 2017 in New Zealand ⋅ ☀️ 15 °C

    After Wednesday's torrential rain and events postponed, the sun came out on Thursday and stayed out giving us four days of biking heaven! It has been an awesome event where there were biking disciplines we have only ever seen online so great to see live. Photos do not give the full scale of the size of the jumps, they are absolutely huge! There are not many events that you can go to where you can see 4 different competitions from the same spot on the hillside! There were so many stars from the biking world just wondering around and very friendly and approachable. One of the nights we were out we ended up by chance in the 'happening' place for all biker people/stars for a film preview. Adrian Loron (who came second in two events) has been staying all week in the same motel as us and is super friendly and down to earth. We did do some homework while here too as we had a workshop on suspension settings so its not all fun. Photo 1: Slopestyle. Photos 4 & 6: Downhill. Photo 2: Dual speed and style.
