Carnage in the Desert

This past weekend the gang made the annual pilgrimage over to the desert single track trails of Fruita and Grand Junction. Despite one of us suffering a separated shoulder and myself banging up my knee, spraining a finger, breaking a rear derailleur, and getting 4 flat tires we managed to get some decent riding in. We managed to ride Gunni Slide, Lemon Squeezer, Holy Cross, Horsethief Bench, Mary’s Loop, and part of Moore fun until I depleted the whole gang’s allotment of spare tubes.  Below is a photo of the gang getting ready to descend The Ribbon before all the carnage ensued.
