The Whole Enchilada Trail: Hannah Otto’s FKT Ride
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ก.ย. 2024
- Moab’s Whole Enchilada MTB trail is one of the best rides you can ever experience on two wheels. There’s high alpine forest singletrack, an expansive meadow overlooking colossal red rock monuments, and extensive slickrock tech riding, all while dropping 8,000’ from the La Sal mountains to the Colorado River. But that’s not the entire Whole Enchilada that Leadville winner Hannah Otto wants you to ride. It’s missing the climb up to earn that jaw-dropping scenery.
Taking off from the streets of Moab, Hannah raced up the paved roads and forest fire roads to the top of the iconic trailhead and back to town, absolutely smashing an all-new FKT (fastest know time) while at it.
Experience this lesser-known take on the Whole Enchilada for yourself, and ride Hannah’s official route.

Great job 👍 I was curious if there a link to the specs on the bike she used?
You are in luck! We have a gear breakdown out now. th-cam.com/video/6iZtVQW6jQU/w-d-xo.html
I would have watched another hour of the ride footage. That this was amazing is an understatement. What a boss.
We'll try to get more next time. She was going TOO fast to capture.
I have to say, as a person who entered their first sport at 38 through biking, these stories are so inspiring. Not because I am trying to hit that level, but to hear how every person who pushes themselves in sport from novice to pro have the same inner dialogue of pain, inadequacy, burnout, wanting to quit etc…thank you. It got me motivated to do in my indoor trainer this morning remembering that it’s the slow increments that count towards the goal ✌🏼
Crush it! Thanks for watching!
Her comment about "incremental improvements" should be an inspiration to all MTB'ers. She gets it. It takes work and perseverance to improve one's self. What a great achievement. Congrats to Hannah and her crew.
We hear you, Hannah is an incredible role model on and off the bike. Thanks for watching!
That is mountain biking . Some downhillers moved next door to me and they think they are mountain bikers, they have no clue. I used to do a ride from my driveway in Lakewood through Morrison up Mount Falcon down Parmalee gulch and up through bear creek canyon through Evergreen and to the top of Bergen peak back the same way, 57 miles. I'm 66 now so that was then but I' jealous watching her be in that groove. Good job.
She was in the groove the entire time! It was incredible to watch, thanks for watching and commenting
I love this woman. So humble and such a great ambassador for the sport!
We agree, Kelly!
This is an amazing story. Soo much more could have been done to tell Hannah's story, what those difficult secitons looked like. For those of us who know the trail, I wanted to see how she tacked the last climb to the top of burrow. How did she ride the technical sections of the trail. The snotch, etc. I am hoping this is just a teaser and you have a much longer story coming. Cheers to Hannah!
I could have watched 2 hrs of this, but it's tough to capture a lot of footage out there riding it that fast. You would need a film crew of 100 people staged along the course.
@@bobbylee8480 Exactly this. Logistically it's a very difficult trail to film. We're glad you love the story and we hope it inspires you to write your own. The best way to experience TWE is to ride it.
@@bobbylee8480 agreed, but it would be a helluva story.
Great job Hannah, 👍, TWE looks like an amazing loop. Well done 👏

In the 1990s a few friends and I would do the porcupine rim trail as a loop from town and we loved the toughness of that and of course there was no Strava back then. We did that loop several dozen times in that decade.
This young cyclist is stunning and makes what we did back then look like child’s play.
She is unbelievable! Thanks for watching. Share the video with your buddies, they might like it too :)
I’ve done Porcupine rim as a loop from my house in Moab a couple of times. I was already whipped when I got to the overlook at the start of the rim trail. That was 25 years ago when I was a young man of 52!
I agree that the Whole Enchilada is the most spectacular trail in the world. Your standardization is such an amazing effort and your commitment to this effort is monument. I have ridden down from Burro Pass nearly a dozen times. I rode it as a loop from Poison Spider once. You are an amazing rider/racer. I have followed you since you joined Orange Seal alongside Payson. I love you for what you bring to the cycling community, and your fearlessness when you jump into new and different races/venues/disciplines. Please keep pushing the envelope and know that you inspire people every day that you simply continue to be Hannah. I look forward to your next adventure. I am so incredibly proud of you for what you have done and what you do!!

Such an amazing accomplishment- that is a very challenging trail
I just watched this with my 7 year old daughter. Super inspiring and as someone who has ridden this trail five times I understand the pain and suffering involved! Great work Hannah! Thanks for inspiring us!

That is badass. It shows that her competition is with herself because of how calm she is. That's one cool person right there.
Hard not to root for Hannah. Great job! Preparation and the best bike under you is everything. I also have the fine Pivot 429 of a couple updates ago with the DT Swiss XR 1501's from Competitive Cyclist. It delivers happiness every day even just looking at it. One of the best things I've ever spent my hard earned money on.
Having done this ride from the Burro shuttle drop off I think the toughest part would be NOT stopping frequently to take photos and enjoy the majestic views! Phenomenal job on the ride and the storytelling. Thank you for sharing.
We agree, Chris! The beauty was incredible. Glad you liked the video, thank you for watching!
As I am watching this...I just kept saying OMG....What an incredible achievement !!! I have ridden the WE before from the top shuttle and thought it was a great ride, but the addition of leaving from town, WOW... Awesome job, well deserved. 🙂
We were in awe watching her. So inspiring. Thanks for watching
Two great TWE "feats of strength" within a week! Highly recommend checking out Braydon Bringhurst's 8600' too.

Hannah Otto, a new name to me, a name I won't forget! Well done, Hannah.
That's what we like to hear! You should follow her, amazing athlete and incredible person!
This is the true spirit of mountain biking! ❤
Hannah is an amazing ambassador for the sport!
Whoever filmed this is such a brilliant cameraman!!! Love the shoots
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for watching.
Wow! What an achievement and what a girl!
I freaking love the Whole Enchilada...what I've ridden of it so far, anyway. I was there last spring and I'm headed there again, in 3 weeks, from Canada! As a 61 year old x-racer who's a little less fit but still a huge mountain-biking enthusiast, I can't wait to get back there and challenge my endurance and skills. Watching Hanna made me feel really, really inspired (despite the age difference) to train even harder before I go. I'll definitely be carrying a lot more water on me, too...I can't believe she only had 2 litres for 55 miles...wtf? Camel, is right!
Can't wait to see what Hannah does next!
OMG, Hannah, this was such an incredible feat! Congratulations! Wow!
2 liters of water only!? Everything else about this ride I can conceive but that part just truly blows the mind, I can go through a liter of water an hour on trails or road with how much I sweat..
Wow! Congratulations on an epic effort. I did the loop last month and it took me 5 hours to do the climb alone.
Nice work out there! A truly epic day.
Impressive ride, Hannah!! Such a well-made video that was fun to watch. Only a few days ago I watched Brayden Bringhurst's excellent documentary 8600 FT climbing up TWE and now Hannah's amazing feat completing the loop in FKT. And to think I had never even heard of The Whole Enchilada until this week.
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching!
Amen, " Let JOY propel you"!
Thank you for bringing this story to life!
No, THANK YOU!
Truly inspirational, Hannah. Holding back tears. (not successfully)

Totally gave me chills! Amazing.
Right!? Pretty incredible effort Hannah put in and that trail is breathtaking
Incredible ride! I would have gone OTB as soon as the trail pointed downhill.
She's an incredible rider. That's for sure
Amazing accomplishment Hannah. 🔥
That's awesome.. I cant imagine all that climbing before the WE. Awesome accomplishment!... "letting joy propel you"... terrific!

Awesome ride Hannah. So happy to see you "normalize" this lap, but why oh why didn't you start and finish at Milt's?! I mean, come on, if there is ever a ride that needs a stop for a milkshake and a burger, to say nothing of the big "FLEX" of "Yeah, I did the REAL Whole Enchilada, not the a la carte' shuttle run. But I will say, stopping at the park after crossing under the highway, is also pretty good, as the slog through town after being on one of the best rides on the planet, can be a real denouement (downer).
My experience doing this October 2020, was the ride of my life and I started riding road bikes in the 80s. The ride up La Salle was insane with all the moon dust/silt and washboards on the access road. Really was a cruel cruel torture. Was invigorated by shuttle drivers yelling out encouragement, throwing shakas, and offering aid. Fortunately I'd stashed a 1.5 liter hydration bladder at that meadow parking about 5 miles before Burro Pass, as I needed all three liters that I carried that day. Cannot believe possible/healthy to do it on less, but then again, I filmed Stetina's two Moab FKT rides... The singletrack blew my mind, made every uphill mile worth it. If you haven't seen Hannah's file yet, Strava lists that segment as 7073ft in 29.36 miles, so yeah, it's WHOLE. Oh and when I came through the tunnel where you finished, some fellas who'd shuttled and seen me riding up the road, gave me a Silver Bullet to quench my thirst before riding back to Milt's... What a day, what a day.
Anyway, I could go on and on, but cam to say, HANNAH ROCKS. To have the courage to even try such a ride is one thin, and then to just crush it?!?! Bravo, cannot wait to congratulate you in person when we next cross paths on the circuit. Big ups!
She did START at Milt's (or right across the street).
@@outerbike You of all people should know, it's the end of ride milkshake, that counts!!! And of course the huge flex of "Just rode Enchilada from town".
This is just one version of many FKT’s of the WE. Great job!
It's a great trail and something for everyone!
I've ridden TWE from the Geyser Pass trailhead. It's an incredible ride. To climb up to Burro and then head down is a staggering feat! Great work, Hannah!
Amazing ride and inspiring video! There's definitely more than "a handful" of people that have done the W.E from town though. I'd estimate it more like 50-100. The W.E route has morphed so much over the years with small singletrack connectors being added and reroutes around Warner Lake Campground that many of the earlier rides will never be picked up (on Strava) by this new FKT route. Not trying to take anything away from her accomplishment but rather lending some historical knowledge of the ride. Cheers
If it's not on Strava, it didn't happen. But seriously, that's why it's an FKT. Gotta be able to prove it.
She established this one and we'll see who else wants to try it out. Thanks for watching!
I did the Whole Enchilada starting and finishing in Moab 2 days before this. I called it SuperEnchilada. I guess the issue about tracking this very long segment in Strava is that there many small variations that you can do and won't appear in the segment leaderboard. This is specially true starting the segment from downtown Moab instead of the Spanish Valley road or Millcreekfor example. In any case, awesome job, Hannah!
So much awesomeness! Congrats Hannah, fantastic ride! 😎👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Bravo 👏..
Amazing job, someday I’ll do the WE I swear to god! 👍👍
Wow 🎉 killer job rockstar!!!! Way to push that pace.
She is so beautiful and captivating "There is something to be said about letting joy propel you"
Absolutely CRUSHED this ride! 💪

Nice!! Super cool, thanks for sharing
The Whole Enchilada remains as my all time favorite trail in the USA. As if the hike to Burro Pass wasn’t challenging enough, Hanna’s full loop from Moab in under 6 hours has officially become the new benchmark challenge
She set the bar high! So many things have to go perfectly and you have to be super fit!
She was awesome. just out of curiosity, i wonder what a fully doped lance armstrong could of done(he is solid mountain biker).
Wow...she's such an inspiration to all mountain bikers. She set a goal and blew right thru it, exceeding her *own* expectations. Some of that technical stuff would make me pucker, yet she was not to be deterred. What an incredible rider and story. CONGRATS HANNAH!!
Thanks for watching, Mike!
Beautifully shot and edited. Such an inspirational story! Just incredible.
Nice Work Hannah!!! The journey is always worth the squeeze!!!
Great effort and what a way to showcase that route. Thanks a million!!!
Thanks for watching!
This is an amazing feat and Hannah is so inspiring! I hope everyone out there can truly recognize the magnitude of this ride! I am looking forward to seeing more of Hannah's story as it unfolds!
She's an incredible person. A complete pleasure to work with. Thank you Hannah!
Congrats, awesome ride.
That is absolutely incredible. Congrats!

This was epic and inspirational. I just started my second round of training for Stagecoach 400 in March. Trying to finish in under 3 days. This is really getting my motivation up.
Crush it, Nick! Thanks for watching.
I don’t know how she did this with 2 liters of water. I drank almost 4. In October. Going down. For the record I don’t know how she did it with any amount of water.

SO awesome Hannah! Hoping there is more video coming!
You sure got me as a new fan. What a great accomplishment.
Incredible ride! Well done Hannah!
Glad you liked it!!
Holy shit this is incredible!! What an amazing ride by Hannah. Also, the footage of this was epic! I got a chance to do some of The Whole Enchilada a couple years ago, and I agree with Hannah. It's the most amazing trail in the world. It should be a bucket list item for any mountain biker. This video brought me back. Thanks for sharing!!!
Nice ride, time to work on that tan...
my friends and I leapfrogged and eventually passed her on a shuttle ride we did on the WE, and based on her pace up the burro pass climb and the bike/ kit we could tell she meant business. come to find out she was CLIMBING UP THE ROAD and training to eventually set this insane record. wow
Wow.....just WOW!
Hannah is amazing! Thanks for watching.
Badass woman. With champagne all over her bike.
She is so badass!
Awesome!!!

That is spectacular! WOW! Amazing work to push through.
