Fruita, ColoradoSaturday-Sunday, June 5-6It's been years that we've been hearing how amazing the riding in Fruita is, and now that it's on our schedule, every coach has her hand up to go. Jen Zeuner, pro-elite rider, industry veteran, and the world's go to person for all that is Fruita, is our contact on the ground, and helping us cook up the very best camp we can. As always we'll start with our morning skill sessions, tailored to individual rider levels and ideal for dialing in both cross-country and freeride techniques. Then we'll head out to enjoy the great variety of trails. Fruita has the Kokopelli Trailhead with its six different loops, tons of rock features, and beginner to advanced terrain. There's also the super smooth twisty singletrack at 18 Mile Road, and even the Lunch Loops in Grand Junction, just a short drive away. As it's our inaugural year we still have lots of planning to do, but for now know that this is going to be an awesome skill development opportunity for beginner through advanced riders, and a super fun camp when all's said and done. Thinking desert / June / heat? Well, since it's raining as I write, that sounds like a dream. No, seriously, we've looked up the average temps for the beginning of June and they're more manageable than we initially thought. Mid-eighties on average. We're happy with that.
