Fru-tah!

So... Fruita was pretty fantastical, as usual. we drove in friday night and things were looking iffy. a lot of wind and some ominous clouds had us concerned. we resorted to drinking in the car sitting in the parking lot for an hour or so because of the wind. also, we learned that almost half of our party from the greater Denver area decided to bail because of the 2 feet of snow they would surely drive through going over the passes. anyway, the weather cleared and it was warm and sunny all day Sat and Sun. biked with old friends and made some new friends from Salida, CO. drank a smidge too much (vurping on the first climb Sun morning. yum!) but that's to be expected. all in all, a stellar weekend.
