Wow. Actually, this reminds me of the road north from Lordsburg to Silver City.
2 years agoHi Keith, the heat for sure is challenging, all part of touring. Working on day 2 will publish soon. Another change in plans to keep moving and get to cooler westher. Thanks for following

2 years agoThanks Scott and hi to Rachael. All part of cycle touring, remaining adaptable and keep on moving.
2 years agoThanks Ron, yes changing plans and adapting is all part of cycle touring as you two know.
That and keep moving down the road however necessary. You'll see tomorrow's post soon. The cycling went great the second day, the place to stay in Separ not so much and Patrick was having trouble with the heat....we changed plans again, got a ride to Demming. Taking a recovery day and will cycle to Silver City tomorrow and get back on track out of the heat.
Ugh. Be careful with that heat, and kee0 pumping those electrolytes in. It doesn’t look like it’s warming up any time soon.
2 years agoRough first day! Glad you were able to get a ride and have a cool place to stay, and are flexible with your plans. We had a similar issue early on our trip with unseasonably hot weather and storms and had to make alternative plans.
As Mike Tyson said, everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth.
What a great setup.

We're looking forward to following your trip. We haven't read many Great Divide journals and yours are so full of detail and pictures we really feel as if we're going along - even when we're going someplace else as the same time!
