Cool and clear with a morning temperature of 41 degrees. It warmed up in the afternoon to around 70 degrees. Today was a hard day with the first 4 hours mostly uphill. It got dark on me riding and I had to ride the last 30 minutes in the dark with my dad driving behind me in the truck. The starting elevation was approximately 4600 feet and I climbed to over 8000 feet before I dropped down into Albuquerque which is around 5000 feet. I didn’t know that New Mexico had this many hills. As you can see by the average speed it was a tough day.
The Blue Hole is a famous scuba diving place just outside of Santa Rosa
New Mexico hills, it doesn’t look like much but they just kept on going
The plains of New Mexico
End of the day in Albuquerque. Like I said I had to ride the last 30 miles in the dark.
