I figured I would throw a photo up from NM.


I recently went back to New Mexico with the family to visit family and took the bicycle along of course. I don't post much anymore but did get one photo that I am fond of so I decided to put it up here. I rode an old favorite trail of mine called the Quemazon trail that goes from town in Los Alamos up to the Pipeline road which continues up to Pajarito Ski Area or down back into town. I had not riden this trail since the fire in 2000 so I headed up to check it out. I figured the trail would have weathered the fire and aftermath fairly well do to the fact that is comprised of mostly rock on the steeper lower sections. I was correct in this assumption and although the day was really hot and there is not much shade anymore (yet)the ride was fun and as tough as I remember.
