Colorado Vacation
Did a little 4 day Colorado vacation over Memorial Day weekend. Weather was perfect the entire time. I rented a Fuel EX 9 which was about as fun as my own Fuel EX 9.5
First day was Hall Ranch.. There's a brewery near the trail that has a promotion.. Ride the trail and get a free beer... So I did.. I was kinda waiting for the catch but that was it... "You rode the trail?" "Well you are entitled to a free beer." Days 2 and 3 were all about elevation gain.. It's always amazing coming from Michigan were it's hard to find a climb of 200 feet to be able to climb several thousand feet...
The beginning of Hall Ranch was kinda technical rocky climbing...

What's better than beer? Free Beer!

I didn't get much past 10,000 feet as the snowfields were making my feet wet...
It's like the WRCS all over again...
