Pinkbike Poll: What Would You Win?

Aug 10, 2015
by Paul Aston  
It's that time of the year when Crankworx rolls in to Whistler, perhaps the most famous and followed event on the mountain bike calendar. If you could take the top step at any one of the events what would it be? Would you out-endure the unbeaten Jared Graves from the Top of the World in the Enduro World Series? Flip off Semenuk on the Joyride Slopestyle? Scrub Kovarik off the Air DH podium? Take on the gargantuan Garbanzo? If they sound too easy, there's plenty more to events to be won like the Pump Track Challenge, Dual Speed and Style, the Fat Tire Crit, Whip-Off Worlds or Canadian Open Downhill or even XC? For the more creative folk there's the Deep Summer Photo Challenge or the Dirtbag Diaries video competition. Win them all and join the Crankworx Monarchy, or perhaps take home the Cheddar and the coveted title of Canadian Cheese Rolling champion?

 Watched a girl completely scorpion at the cheese rolling last year. I love watching it but I have to admit it's the most frat boy shit ever. Still highly entertaining and people get fucked up even with helmets.

 They should combine the cheese roll with the running of the bulls. Like what they have in Spain. Except use pissed off mountain goats.

 @brassine, how about substituting the bulls with the big 100lb cheese wheels & instead of chasing the cheese rolls, the competitors have to outrun/maneuver the giant cheese wheels?

 I want an article about the cheeses that the pros are rolling, complete with cheese diameter and air pressure in the cheese holes.

 If this is a purely hypothetical I'd have to say Joyride, even though I've never ridden a slopestyle bike in my life. Reason being that of all the events at Crankworx, Joyride is the only one that is essentially the pinnacle of a particular discipline. Winning the Canadian open or the Garbo DH would be sick, but no one really cares who wins those races as world cups and world champs are the defining events for DH racers. Joyride is THE event for slope riders.

 Whichever pulls the most Tail. So probably not Upduro, XC, Picture Taking, Story Writing, Slo-mo on Pavement...

 I'm sorry but you clearly made this poll just so you could write something about cheese rolling. Not that I'm against it but damn if guys if you are going to write about cheese rolling, at least make it as long winded as your recent tl;dr's......

 Deep Summer Photo Challenge hands down. Would love for them to do this at Crankworx Rotorua - would be so fun!

 I say Fox Air DH cause that's the only event I can compete in. Work all the other events so I can't be in Whistler Frown

 After watching Dan Atherton's run I'd be happy to finish the 5th stage and know I gave it my all without slowing down due to a lack of fitness.

 To be able to maintain this sort of speed for 14 minutes, it's gotta be EWS for me!

 Interesting that winning the Enduro is topping this list when recent polls clearly had DH in the lead for what people wish they could do and prefer to watch.
