The BEST Mountain Biking Trail - HORSETHEIF, KOKOPELLI | Grand Junction, Fruita, Loma, Colorado

I know that it is a bold statement that I am making, but I think after you watch the video, and ride Horsetheif Bench trial you will agree it is the best trail in the Grand Valley. The mountain biking at the Kokopelli Trail system in Loma, Colorado is top notch, all the trails are fun in their own way, BUT Horsetheif Bench is the best one, and arguably the best. The Lunch Loops in Grand Junction offer some amazing riding, 18 rd in the desert north of Fruita is fantastic, but the trail that I think about riding, and gravitating too all the time is Horsetheif. It offers a wide range of riding, from big drops, to little drops, to flowy, fast sections, to super chunky rock sections, to terrifying rock sections, including the infamous Horsetheif Drop-in. Below are links to a few riders making it all the way down the drop (on their bikes) and one, Jeff Lenosky, making it all the way up. I hope you enjoy the video as much as I enjoyed riding the trail and making this for you all to watch.
