The melting pot of Whistler was once again turned up to 11. There is one thing this venue never fails to provide and that is intensity. With a 70km loop packed into one boiling hot day over five stages, it was always going to serve up some surprises and challenges, the riders probably didn’t think there would be quite as many as there were.

 Dear Pinkbike,

While the live coverage is awesome (please keep that coming), the quality of this post-race coverage is engaging in disparate ways that make me want to ride my bike. Thanks Wink

oh also, I love you.

 I have been thinking about this myself. I'm no Jared Graves by a long shot, but I prefer Maxxis. Has anyone asked Jared about his opinions on Spec vs Maxxis recently? I know every sponsored athlete says their current sponsor is the best, so its a pointless question, but I'd be curious to see if anyone has asked.

 Why's this not on YouTube? Come on EWS I'm trying to get my girlfriend in into watching enduro races. (She already watches the UCI DH races and is more into it than me). ;-)
