Crankworx heads to New Zealand in 2015

Crankworx events are the best mountain bike free ride events in the world. For 2015, the schedule has been expanded to include a new event in New Zealand.

Starting next year, Crankworx organizers have decided to expand internationally. Rotorua, New Zealand has been added to the current calendar of Les 2 Alpes, France, and the flagship event in Whistler, B.C.

Five days of competition will make up the New Zealand debut of Crankworx, slated for March 25-29, 2015.

“We could not be more excited to be bringing Crankworx to Rotorua,” says Crankworx General Manager Darren Kinnaird. “The trails in New Zealand are out-of-this-world. Adding Rotorua allows us to grow the celebration and share what Crankworx is all about – it’s a gathering of the world’s best riders from all disciplines of mountain biking. It’s mountain biking at its most raw.”

The event will include the usual schedule of Crankworx events, as well as hosting the first round of the 2015 Enduro World Series.
