September 30 – October 4, 2016 – 101 Miles
Rainy and cold in Flagstaff so we decided to head for New Mexico. Stopped in Winslow, Arizona on our way. Such a fine place to be!
Most of our riding was going to be in the Albuquerque area. We were surprised to find that the Balloon Fiesta was just starting the day we arrived. It was an awesome site. No camping close to town so we went to a Corp of Engineers campground several miles north of Albuquerque.
We picked up a map at a local bike shop and there were many trails to choose in the area. Some we had researched in advance. The Bosque was our favorite.
From Albuquerque we headed for Santa Fe and spent an evening with our new friends Mary and Jerry. Then it was on to Chama, NM to visit Jimmy, our long time 4-wheeling friend. Great to see his ranch in the mountains. We left Chama on October 6, our 43rd Wedding Anniversary. YAY!!
