Crankworx Fantasy Tips and Updates

In the life of the fast and furious, things change fast, some riders get carried away by the sweet Whistler festival fever and add more races to their schedule, while others may drop out due to injury.
We will keep you posted with daily updates, but we also encourage you to “like” the Riders social media pages so you are up to date and can make changes to your team as needed or desired.
