STAGE 1 ROY, NM TO SAN JON, NM
After a morning of meetings at Zanios and a mini in house food show in Albuquerque, Stage 1 began.
The three things that worry me the most were not a factor today. Heat. Wind. Snakes. The Stage began in Roy, NM and traveled to San Jon and then back to Logan totaling 110 miles. This was due to no SAG in San Jon so I had no choice but to ride back to Logan (20 miles) to the Budget Inn Express. Hotel owners Gary, Jessica and Virginia Knight donated a room and treated me like royalty as I enjoyed their newly remodeled and comfortable Inn. Go see them when you visit Logan's beautiful Ute Lake. Cloud Coverage, no wind, low temperatures (52 degrees) and a destiny with darkness forced me to ride a little faster than I would have liked (5 hour 25 minutes) but I felt pretty good. Tarantulas and an enormous pony looking mailbox were the only varmint that I encountered today. However, when in San Jon I saw the monsters on the horizon which I will attempt to slay on Monday. The windmill farm on top of the mesa, which has a total of 80 windmills, produces energy for homes. Where there are windmills there must be wind. Subway representative, Jennifer Ellerd, from the Lubbock Texas District called me today and donated Subway sandwiches within her district which includes Lubbock for two days, Abilene, and Brownwood. Who knows, maybe I will be the next Jared. LOL
Live Strong and Ride on.
