EVOC's Annual Group Ride
at Crankworx 2024:
A Celebration of Friends,
Family, and Trails

Whistler, BC

As the vibrant energy of Crankworx filled the air in Whistler, EVOC once again gathered its friends and family for an annual group ride, a tradition that embodies the brand's spirit of adventure and camaraderie. This year, we chose the exhilarating "Bring On The Weekend" trail, extending our journey down to the Wedgemount parking lot. It was a ride filled with laughter, challenges, and unforgettable moments, capped off with a classic German Pilsner and bratwurst BBQ.

The Ride: Bring On The Weekend

With a perfect mix of EVOC team members, dealers, and VIPs, our group of 12 set off with excitement and anticipation. "Bring On The Weekend" is a Whistler classic, offering a thrilling mix of technical sections and flowing descents. The trail, with its lush forest scenery and exhilarating drops, was the perfect choice for this year's ride. As we made our way through the twists and turns, the camaraderie among the riders was palpable. The shared love for mountain biking and the thrill of the ride created an atmosphere of unity and joy.

The Descent to Wedgemount Parking Lot

The adventure didn't stop at the end of "Bring On The Weekend." We extended our ride down to the Wedgemount parking lot, a decision that added an extra layer of fun to the day. The descent was filled with smiles and cheers as we navigated the terrain together. The trail's mix of challenges and scenic views provided the perfect backdrop for this special occasion.

The After-Party: Pilsners and Bratwurst

As we reached the parking lot, we were greeted by the warm and welcoming sight of Peter Creighton, who had set up a German-style BBQ. With cold Pilsners in hand and the aroma of bratwurst filling the air, we gathered around to celebrate the ride. The BBQ was a fitting end to a day filled with adventure and camaraderie. It was a moment to relax, share stories, and enjoy the company of fellow riders.

A Celebration of Community

The EVOC group ride at Crankworx is more than just a ride; it's a celebration of community, passion, and the joy of mountain biking. It's a chance to connect with old friends, make new ones, and share in the thrill of the trails. This year's ride on "Bring On The Weekend" was a testament to the strength of the EVOC family and the bonds that bring us together.
