    Taos, NM - Oct 20/21 - sunny skies!

    Okay, so the last couple weekends have seen the weather take a giant crap on my plans.

    Still trying to get in one last 2 day trip for the year.

    This one is a total blast, one of my favorites. 1000 miles of mostly high speed sweepers with Million Dollar Highway and Black Canyon thrown into the mix.

    Hotels are cheap, like $43 for a 2 bed room.

    Budget total around $150 to include hotel, food and gas. Looking for at least 1 person but the more the merrier!

    PM me if you're interested!

    Anyone on the fence for this really should go!! Did this ride with Clovis in September and it was a blast! Amazing roads, high speed sweepers, some tight technical, lots of beautiful scenery, nice straights where you can safely do a top speed run if you like.. little bit of everything. BTW, Clovis is great to ride with, wish I could go again this time.

    The route is the best low altitude run in Colorado IMO. Wish I could make it.

    Current weather forecast looks perfect! Warm (for October) and sunny.

    Currently it's Bornwidenfree, myself and possibly a 3rd. This will be the last weekend trip of 2012 (most likely). It's a total blast, likely to be your best of the year and cheap!!

    Have fun. I am not even close to being in. Ankle is hurt from an unexpected get off on the KTM 250 3x weeks ago and packing an elk out last weekend did me zero favors....
