Desert RATS Classic 100K Endurance Mountain Bike Race

On the Western slope of Colorado, the famous Kokopelli Trail winds its way through sagebrush, ledgy slickrock, winding double track, sandy washes, fast jeep trails and crosses the state line toward Moab, UT. this trail is the site of the Desert R.A.T.S. Classic. The 100K endurance mountain bike race is a challenging out and back test of stamina. Held in May, it's a great early season test of fitness and a great reason to keep training over the winter and early spring. The course is equally well suited for geared bikes and single speeds and covers a wide variety of terrain including challenging technical terrain, grueling climbs, fast flats, and tricky descents. This event is challenging and should not be taken lightly. We'll have 5 well-stocked aid stations along the course and a celebration waiting for you at the finish line with food, drinks, and music. Every racer that finishes in less that 8 hours receives a "finisher's medal." There will also be 5 hour awards, and 3 deep awards in men's and women's categories.
