If you're going to Fruita, take two days- 1st go to LOMA and hit Horse Thief Bench- Marys trail- and I think it's Steve's trail, take enough time to get a map and ride that whole area. VERY good riding with some incredible cliff hanging trails.

2nd day head up to 18 rode, about two miles out of fruita. There's four trails from the upper parking lot to the lower parking lot. if you don't have two cars to shuttle you'll have to decide which ones you want to do- but I would suggest at the VERY Least- Start with Joe's Ridge- it'll make you poop yourself, then do Zippity- and you'll think Joe's is a peice of cake!!

I shattered a free wheel on Zippity! Look up Joes Ridge and Zippity on youtube. The left hand corner on Zippity where the camera can't see anything but air- oooh man is that cool in real life!! SWEET STUFF!
