Haven't Been To Fruita

...but now I might have to make a swing through there.  This guy is a great spokesman for MTB and quite a hoot!

I haven't been in quite a while.  The trails are nice, but it wasn't really built up when I was there.   It was hard to compete with Moab's infrastructure, so I normally just ended up in Moab.

Is it built up there now?

Sounded like it.  Hard to match Moab's fame and thus popularity and development, but seems like a lot of Colorado and surrounding bits (heck, much of the US) has been building up some good cycling stuff.  Since they are relatively close to each other, folks are in the area, and like he says, were driving through, so it made sense to make it a place to stop and stay for a bit.

I have stood in this shop.  I bought a hat there.  I wear that they charged me for a freebie hat that was leftover from an event, but whatever.  I forgot mine.  It reads "US Banks, Fat Tire Festival."  That hat was like 20 bucks.  It was the cheapest one I could find.
