Fastest Known Time (FKT)
The Log Driver's Waltz is a route, not a race. It was designed to showcase the region. It is up to you how fast you pass through this beautiful landscape. Of course some riders will want to see how fast they can ride the route as is common with other bikepacking routes. If you are trying to set a personal record or a new FKT it is expected that you respect other users on shared pathways and forest trails. FKT is the elapsed time and includes stops. If you decide to "race" the route you do so entirely at your own risk.
