Speed Climbing at the Go Fast Games

From Climbing.com:

On September 14–16, 2007 at the Royal Gorge Bridge near Canon City, Colorado speed demons Brian Gallant and Aaron Simmons climbed the Clean Dan Memorial (5.11b) five times over three days in the Go Fast Games. The event also features BASE Jumping off the bridge.

Hank Caylor bolted the eight-pitch, 1,000-foot route in 2004 for the Go Fast Games Big Wall Speed Climbing Competition, which Gallant and Mike Johnson took first place in that year with a time of 1hr and 12min. No competition has been held on it since 2004.
