Challenge yourself to climb Montagu Pass in the fastest possible time you can and see how it racks up on the leaderboard! Join in on the fun even if it’s just to compare!
FKT stands for Fastest Known Time. We will open a month-long window for you to have a go at the climb and see how your time compares. We will select the winner from our official registered entry list and only for the period of this challenge. You will be responsible for your own navigation and your own recording of your time. You need to be self-sufficient and mountain savvy as you will be out there on your own. Your time/track log needs to be loaded onto STRAVA to make it official within the period of this challenge.

It is your responsibility to record and upload your effort onto Strava for it to be considered as an attempt. You can attempt the segment as many times as you like in the month of December. Prizes will not only be awarded to the official winners but we will have certain “spot” prizes for people that stand out as well. The winners will be announced via Social media and the judges’ decision will be final. KOM and QOM winners need to comply with all the rules and requirements stated.
