Gravity Media's collaboration with Red Bull TV will see Crankworx Cairns broadcast across the world.
Matt Hilton, CEO GTR Events Local Organising Committee, Crankworx Cairns:

Gravity Media Australia's understanding of our events provide us with a trust that our events are a world class presentation.
Marcus Doherty, Account Executive, Media Services and Facilities at Gravity Media:
We are looking forward to working with GTR Events and our production partners in delivering a world class broadcast of Crankworx Cairns.

We are pleased to partner with GTR Events on Crankworx. Our relationship with them on Crankworx Cairns now in its second year - builds on our long relationship on major events including the Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Race in Geelong and the UCI MTB World Championships in Cairns.
