Day 12 - South to the border - Columbus, NM


The local bike shop in Silver City that was very handy.
We found ourselves there on both stops and left bit poorer.


Up and out early.  Yes that is a Walmart in the background.


Relatively flat and straight road ahead.  Some of the busiest so far.



So very cool! 
As we passed a small group of what appeared to be antelope, 
they took off running parallel to us in a race - we lost :(




Lots of history



Sergio got the prize thus far with 7 flats.  
1 each (so far) for Christian and me.


Sergio working!  
Must say we enjoyed the rest.


Our overnight stop in Columbus, only 6 miles to the border.
Cold free beers offered  - very welcome after a swift 85 miles.


Very little climbing, and for the most part, little head wind.
Best moving average for the trip.

Local dinner stop - nice people and good food!


Tomorrow is another flat 74 mile day along the border into El Paso.

  1. We've enjoyed your blog Dave - talk about variable weather conditions! Are you having the diamondback mounted when you get home? Safe final day riding! Hugs, Ron & Pam
