Very windy and cold. Mike says 40 deg, but I think colder and much colder w/the wind chill. Started 5 miles east of Tornillo. I braved the sind and cold, riding thru Acala, but when we got to Fort Hancock a lady at the post office said she had come from Sierra Blanca where they had 2 inches of snow. That said - Mike was riding solo and I was riding in the motor home. Mike and Russ bucked the wind nearly all day covering only 54 miles. Not much in the way of scenery. Mountains pretty, but flat land rough. Southern AZ, New Mexico & Texas full of pecan trees, chili peppers and green onions so far - cotton not planted yet. The guys hit 1,000 miles today.
Hey Dawn and Mike - amazing to think of you riding across the barren southwest (mountains notwithstanding). I hope you are riding into warmer weather!
