Favorite Bike shop/GastroPub

Grassroots is THE GO-TO bike shop in town. These guys are not only knowledgeable - they are also super cool to hang out with. Bike service, repair, rental AND they have recently opened a Gastrohub in the same location that makes the world's best sandwiches and coffee. Be sure to check this place out and grab a burrito for the trail! Tell Matt and Erin and Timmy D we sent ya!!!!

This is absolutely breathtaking and a thrilling drive! Lots and lots of hiking here. If you do hike the Monument, check with the visitor's center for any closed trails and remember, it is really exposed in some areas the Summer so head out early and in many areas there is no cell service available. We recommend downloading alltrails maps or whatever app you love. Remember Sunscreen, sunshirts, hats and more water than you think you need!
