Dave Baker at Gila Bike and Hike replaced the broken
spoke for $10 labor, how cool is that?
He also started the Yellow Bike program in Austin, TX.
The ride out of Silver City, NM starts with some roller coasters to get you warm, then highway 180 drains away from the Mogollon mountain range toward the Interstate 10 corridor. We took a right at Deming, NM onto state road #549, instead of hopping on I-10. 549 is flat and inviting, since one or two cars come along every 10 minutes or so. We stayed on it until about 17 miles outside of Las Cruces, NM. The road abruptly ends, and we lifted the bikes over the fence and finished up on the interstate. The winds either help or hurt you, depending on where your're headed. By noon they kick up pretty good. We have been lucky up to this point.
When synchronized cycling makes it into the Olympics, we'll be ready. Here we are working on our routine while cruising highway 549.
This is for you mom, we love you.
over and out
