Hannah Otto crushed the FKT on Moab’s famous Whole Enchilada trail (climb the fire road and descend the infamous route) on October 11, 2022, in a blazingly fast time of 5:50:38. This is the fastest know time recorded for both men and women!

Mountain Bike racer and 2022 Leadville Race Winner Hannah Otto partnered with Online specialty retailer Competitive Cyclist to produce a video encapsulating her triumphant journey. Hannah’s mission is to inspire and motivate people to get out on their bikes and challenge themselves.

Moab’s Whole Enchilada MTB trail is an iconic, breathtakingly stunning downhill affair that drops 8,000’ from the top of the La Sal mountains to the shores of the Colorado River. It’s on every rider’s bucket list for a good reason. It has a high alpine forest, an expansive meadow overlooking colossal red rock monuments, and extensive slickrock tech riding … the Whole Enchilada. But to Hannah Otto, it’s missing half the story and half the fun—the climb up to earn the scenery.
