New Mexico BDR
Then the route climbed into the mountains/hills. The elevation is high but the landscape looks kind of hilly and had a lot of forest as well. I was impressed with the landscape and the ride itself, as I had not expected that of northern New Mexico. As I reached the most northernly point, the road…

Crossing into France was…
