Whistler Crankworxs: Just call it Lopes-worxs!



Saturday, Aug. 15th, 2009

This has been a phenomenal year at Crankworxs, Whistler for Brian, who has been able to collect 3 gold medals out of the 4 events he competed in!

The latest conquests being the GIANT Slalom last night and today's Canadian Open Enduro. Both events showcase Lopes' diversity on a bicycle; the Giant Slalom allowed him to pull from his BMX and 4-Cross background, while the Enduro required a substantial amount of fitness and DH experience. All in all Lopes proved to the crowd and pro peers that you can't rule him out!

A warm congrats to Brian's longtime friend Leigh Donovan who secured bronze medal in the Giant Slalom. Well done Leigh!!
