SUBMIT ROUTE
Do you have a route in mind that you think should be part of our growing FKT library? We’d love to hear from you! Please bear in mind the following guidelines before submitting your route.
- Routes must be at least 100km long as a minimum, there is no upper limit.
- A route can be on any surface – road, off-road, gravel or otherwise.
- A route can be ‘linear’ or ‘circular’. Where a route is ‘circular’, i.e consists of a loop that starts and finishes at the same place, the rider may start/finish at any point in the loop, as long as the full route is completed.
- Routes should begin and end at logical points. For instance this could be a landmark, the trailhead, end of named trail, or a distinct geographical feature. Bonus points if there is a train station near to the start and/or finish, or the route encourages accessibility by public transport.
- Routes should be established as a recognised fixed route. This ensures that routes have been designed purposefully with beautiful scenery, safety and logic in mind. Perhaps the route has historical or cultural merits, or a history of competition within an annual grand depart. We recognise that not every route will meet all of these standards, but this is what we will aim for when evaluating route submissions for inclusion on the website.
- Routes should not traverse private land except in circumstances where this has been authorised by the landowner. If a permit is required to access the route, evidence of this should be submitted alongside an FKT attempt.
