Wednesday - Today we left New Mexico and climbed up through a pass into Colorado. We had to do about 3000 feet of climbing over about 30 km to reach the summit, which was a real challenge, but the views were spectacular and the ride down the other side was exhilarating.
Distance: 124.7 km
Elevation: +3532 / -3756 ft
Average Speed: 25.6 km/h
3756 feet down? I have only one thing to say about that:
ReplyDeleteWHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
The ride down was pretty intense. The road wasn't great and you couldn't see very far ahead, so I couldn't really let go. Today's (Thursday) descent wasn't as large, but it was a lot more fun.
DeleteNice pictures Mike!
