Saddle up for a Texas mountain biking favorite at the Austin Rattler MTB, produced by Youphoria Productions. Our 33K loop course offers plenty of fun in one lap alone, but those that ride 100K will have a chance to qualify for the Leadville Trail 100 MTB. Celebrate your finish in true Austin style with live music, BBQ and beer at the lakeside post-race party.
This 33K loop course features fast, fun singletrack, rugged granite outcrops and speedy fire roads through the impeccably maintained Reveille Peak Ranch, a 1,300-acre mecca of amazing trails, first-class facilities and outdoor adventure. Detailed 2019 course maps and profiles will be available closer to the race date.

LT100 MTB corral/start position
Austin Rattler could not only gain you entry into the LT100 MTB, but it could also boost your corral starting position! Rider starting positions are organized in color-coded corrals. These positions will be based on a finish time from the 2018 (year prior only) LT100 MTB race, a 2018 or 2019 qualifier event finish time, or if you hold a current USCI Pro Elite license. Please enter finish times or license numbers when prompted during the registration process. However, if you race a qualifier after previously gaining entry, you MUST email Quinn Cooper at qcooper@lt.life to inform her of your finish time so you will be placed accordingly. You will not be placed automatically. Corrals will be assigned as follows:
