At the end, two pro riders bested them all &#8211; Jared Graves (AUS) sat atop the Pro Men\u2019s podium, solidifying his spot at the top of the Enduro World Series (EWS) point standings, while Cecile Ravanel (FRA) finished fastest in the Pro Women\u2019s category, winning her first EWS race.<\/h2>\n<p><iframe src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ovv_lqpH2RE?list=UUTSEBFFCtxdmqT7J_cGbEXQ\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<div>\u201cIt\u2019s my first win and it\u2019s the best one to win, in the best place,\u201d said an elated Ravanel. \u201cAt the beginning of the season I said that I preferred to win one Enduro World Series race in Whistler than two or three others during my career.\u201d<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Ravanel\u2019s win in 58:04 put her one step up from the two women who\u2019ve spent most of this season battling it out for top spot &#8211; Tracy Moseley (GBR) finished the day in second place with a time of 1:00:11, while Anne Caroline Chausson (FRA) took third with 1:03:11 after a puncture slowed down her final run of the day on Stage Five.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>For the Pro Men, the end of the day reflected the current EWS rankings, but certainly not the beginning of the day. Jared Graves\u2019 massive run in the final stage was enough to earn him the top of the podium, a total time of 51:11 and enough to make up for some challenges he faced during the first four stages &#8211; a fork malfunction had been slowing him throughout the day.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u201cI was really battling through that for the first four stages,\u201d said Graves. \u201cBut we got an opportunity to come back here and work on our bikes and get it sorted out. We just nailed a good last stage. It\u2019s rad.\u201d<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>In second place behind Graves was Nico Lau (FRA) who took second with a time of 51:13, while Curtis Keene (USA) rounded out the podium, taking third with a time of 51:27.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>In total, winners in all categories walked away with a total of $25,000 &#8211; the richest prize purse in the EWS.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Before the winners crossed the finish line, the story for most of the day remained consistent &#8211; the course, that some renamed Crankzilla.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u201cI maybe spent eight hours on my bike today,\u201d said Ravanel.\u201dWith the warm weather, it was crazy.\u201d<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>The buzz around the course exploded when it was unveiled earlier in the week. In the five transitions, riders climbed a total of 2,442 metres over 36.53 kilometers.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Designers of this year\u2019s course focused on technical style while presenting competitors with a cross section of Whistler\u2019s finest. The resulting trails were well-received by riders, and will continue to benefit the community. Extensive work was done to re-route, upgrade and reactivate Crazy Train and Boyd\u2019s Trail before the race, while Micro Climate, the trail used for Stage One, is a very recent addition to the Whistler Trail Network.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Looking to the future, the points Moseley earned for her second place finish keep her at the top of the women\u2019s rankings of the EWS, while Graves\u2019 win solidifies his spot at the top of the men\u2019s.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u201cThere\u2019s only one round to go and I\u2019ve got a good points lead now. It\u2019s a big goal but&#8230;I couldn\u2019t be happier right now. It\u2019s sweet.\u201d<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>The final EWS race of the season, Finale Ligure Superenduro powered by SRAM, round 7 of the series, will take place October 4-5, 2014.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Next up on the Crankworx calendar is the first of three DH races &#8211; the Garbanzo DH hits the dirt Tuesday, August 12, followed by the GoPro Dirt Diaries film competition.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><b>Pro Men\u2019s Results:\u00a0<\/b><\/div>\n<div>1.
