THE ROUTE

​

KOM Genting Highlands is a cyclosportive event for experienced riders, set to take place on Wednesday, 3rd September 2025. The race will tackle the legendary and challenging climbs of Genting Highlands, one of Malaysia's most iconic and demanding ascents.

​

​

RACE PACK COLLECTION

​

All race packs are to be claimed at Padang Dataran Bentong on 2 September 2025, 10AM - 10PM.

​

OFFICIAL JURY – CHONOMETRY – FEEDING POINTS

​

Timing will be done using an electronic detection system.

 

The whole route will be timed and will give rise to the final ranking. The ascents previously mentioned will also be timed and give rise to the best climber classification.

 

Snacks and Refreshment stations are set up along the whole route and after the finish line for all the participants.

 

A real-time limit to cross the finish line (from the crossing of the starting line) is defined by the Organiser according to the difficulties of the course, technical constraints, etc. and is fixed at five (5) hours. Any participant exceeding this real limit time, even if crossing the finish line, will be eliminated.

 

Once the end of race vehicle has passed by, participants must imperatively comply with the traffic regulations of the “Code de la Route” (French highway code), the traffic being allowed to be reopened at any time following the passage of the said vehicle.

​

TIMING

​

All participants will be issued with an electronic chip in their race pack (the chip is attached to the back of the frame numbers), which will be automatically initialised on the start line and will track the conformity of the race at each antenna along the Event’s route and at the finish line.

 

CAUTION: In order to allow the timing chip to function properly it must not be folded or bent. The frame plate must be attached at the bike seat.

 

Participants who do not follow the route defined by the Organiser, who use human and/or material assistance, or who cross the finish line without their “chipped” frame plate will not be recorded as having finished.

 

The electronic detection system has been chosen according to strict reliability requirements. Despite tests conducted by the manufacturers, a very low percentage of cases of non-detection remains. Due to the lack of information resulting from this non-detection, the Organiser may be unable to show the official or real-time for the participant concerned in the ranking. The Organiser cannot be held responsible for this.
