Grand Junction Trails

Today we rode at the grand junction trails -which I think are technically still part of the Fruita trail system. We rode Tanaguache up to Pre-nup, down to Holy Cross (which was techy and fun), and then back up to do Eagle's Wing (definitely the best trail of the day-nice views). We did a couple other minor loops, but I can't remember the names right now.

So far Thor and I are a tad unimpressed with the Fruita trails. They would be GREAT to have in our backyard - don't get me wrong - we'd be stoked to have access to trails like these in Portland to ride on a daily basis, but in terms of them being 'destination' mtn. bike trails...well...our vote is still out! We have one more day of riding in Fruita at the Kokopelli trails tomorrow, and we'll see what we think after that.

On the food front Fruita has Moab beat (at least in terms of dinner!) We ate at the Hot Tomato tonight (www.hottomatocafe.com)-and their pizza was really good! We're already contemplating a second trip tomorrow night. (don't worry though - Double Mountain still has them beat).
