Default Rio Grande Gorge

Below are a couple of pictures of my ride through the mountains above Santa Fe. One is of me parked in front of the Rio Grande Gorge near Taos. The other is of the gorge itself. To understand the scale, notice the blue dot near the bottom of the pic. That's a raft with about 12 people in it. Pretty darn big.

The gorge:



Abigail and me after about 5 hours of riding through the mountains:

Nice!!! We took a trip up to Red River last year, and it was gorgeous. We sure wish we lived closer to somewhere that has curvy roads and mountains to be cooler while riding. Instead, we make due with the flats of Oklahoma... mainly because the mountains bring cold weather that's harder to deal with than flat riding in the summer!
