The SLV Rattlers are a composite team made up of cyclists from different high schools and home schools in the San Luis Valley. We focus the on cross-country aspect of mountain bike riding.  

We train middle school and high school kids locally and compete against mountain bikers from Colorado, New Mexico and Wyoming in the Colorado High School Mountain Biking League. 

The SLV Rattlers are 100% volunteer coaches and organizers. Any middle-school or high school aged students in the SLV are welcome to ride with the team and the goal is to be inclusive with no undue financial burden on the rider’s family. 

We participate in the Colorado High School Cycling League. The team and league have no affiliation with CHSAA and receive no funding from local schools, relying on grants and donations to cover the team’s operating expenses.
