On the 12th of May 2024, Tim King (aka Timmy Tracksuit) an amateur cyclist is making his 13th attempt to achieve his long-standing ambition to complete the the Fred Whitton Challenge in under 7 hours. The Fred is a 112-mile sportive that starts in Grasmere and then proceeds to take in the significant climbs of Kirkstone, Honister, Newlands, Whinlatter, Hardknott & Wrynose, and Blea Tarn passes.
The Fred Whitton Challenge is not a race but a personal challenge for participants to complete the demanding route within a set time frame. It has grown in popularity over the years and has become a prestigious event in the cycling community, drawing cyclists from all over the country to take on the tough but scenic course in the Lake District.
Tim is a serial fundraiser for his chosen charity, the North West Air Ambulance, a charity that provides a vital service for the rural community that is only funded by charitable donations.
If you are inspired by Tim's efforts, you can sponsor him here, or better still why not consider entering the challenge yourself and in so doing raise some money for a charity that touches you.
