The Enduro World Series finds its way to Crankworx Whistler this week with the Canadian Open Enduro. This event has become known as a must-ride for enduro competitors looking to challenge themselves and their equipment. The one-day race (yep, just one day), covers 57kms, climbs 4200 meters (with a little help from the lifts) and descends the same. The courses sample some of Whistler's most well-known and not-so-well-known pieces of trail beauty. No cruisy singletrack, no taking it easy, just a hours of non-stop brutality in the form of two-wheeled bliss are ready.
