Day 10 – El Paso, TX: A few sprinkles before arriving at hotel
Thursday March 12, 2020, 57 miles (91 km) – Total so far: 478 miles (769 km)
Was able to start riding the morning before 8 am. It did not rain over night but expect the forecast is the rain will start around noon. I was only 15 miles from Las Cruces. I headed to Denny’s for breakfast. I stopped at Outdoor Adventures in Las Cruces soon after they opened to get the second spare inner tube which I have been looking for. I rode near New Mexico State University as I made my way back to the route.
Day 11 – El Paso, TX: Rest Day
Friday March 13, 2020 I spent the day updating the journal, doing some bicycle maintenance, and doing laundry. It rained a little here in El Paso. It will take me about three weeks to get across Texas. There are some long stretches with no services so I will need to be prepared. Thanks for following along. Please feel free to the use the Guestbook to leave the questions and comments.
