Tackling the Horsethief drop in at Fruita, Colorado with Landon Monholland and SSWC Ross Schnell

We had a chance to tag along with Single Speed World Champ Ross Schnell and local ripper horsedrop380.jpgLandon Molholland on a ride in Fruita, Colorado last week. One of the trails we hit near the Loma trailhead was the Horsethief loop off Lions. As you can see from the video, the drop in to the bench is a lot more technical than the "more difficult" designation would suggest. A few guys were attempting the drop in while most just carried their bikes. Landon and Ross were stepping it up.

Once to the bottom of this section, its all just rippin' singletrack and its well worth the scramble up and down the hill. Check it out if you are on I 70 on the western edge of Colorado. You will like it!
