STAGE 2 CIMARRON, NM TO ROY, NM
This was an uneventful ride that I will not forget but will probably wish for when I get to the heat of Texas.
Foggy, misting, and cold. Today was a 71 mile stretch that went from Cimmaron, NM to Roy, NM. My legs felt a little weak this morning primarily due to only having a mini muffin for breakfast, a very cold crosswind for the last 26 miles, and traveling on a rough road surface. Visibility was less than 200 yards at some points with a little mist that forced me to remove my glasses early on due to condensation and lack of visibility. I also had to wear a cotton T-Shirt over my jersey to stay warm. I was unable to see the mountains disappear through the fog like I have been able to on some of my training rides but I knew I was distancing myself from them. The most adrenaline moments is when vehicles drive by and honked their horns which really startle a cyclist on a very narrow road. Tomorrow will be a very exciting day for me as I leave my beautiful resort town of Red River.
Live Strong and Ride On.
