This is the seventh time since 2001 that the Red Bull Rampage has rolled into Virgin, Utah and is guaranteed to be filled with suspense as fans get to watch the world’s favorite riders battle it out on a unique desert mountain course. Unlike events with a defined course and familiar obstacles, Red Bull Rampage lets the riders determine their own route down steep cliffs; the more creative the line, the better the score.
