Fangdango comes back to a familiar venue in 2024. Thanks to the fine folks at the MAC and Castle Rock, this year’s course features some of the old classics near the Phillip Miller Activity Complex. Only a short drive from the Denver Metro area, and very easy to get to, expect plenty of climbing, tricky technical descents, and fast flowy single-track. The spectating on this course is amazing and the views are excellent.

What to Expect
World class style course a short drive away. At 5 miles and 500 feet vertical per lap, this challenging course will give you everything that should be in a mountain bike race. Sharp turns and cornering that will test your technical abilities, punchy climbs that will test your raw strength, fast descents that will test your guts, and multiple laps that will test your will! To say there are a few turns on this course is an understatement.

Refund Policy: Rattler Racing does not offer refunds. We completely understand that unfortunate circumstances happen, but we plan this event way in advance from a cost and resource allocation perspective, and the financial and administrative burden is high. On the plus side, we do offer transfers and deferrals. If you would like to transfer your entry to another rider, no problem. Just drop us a line and we can get it taken care of for you at no charge. The same goes for deferrals. We realize schedules change, life events happen, and injuries can surprise us. We will happily defer your entry fee to next year. Again, no charge, but you must let us know prior to race day.
