October 11, 2026. We recently visited New Mexico, spending time in Santa Fe, Taos, and Albuquerque. We toured by bicycle in all three locations, starting in Santa Fe with a rain-shortened tour, then to a beautiful day touring Taos, and then finally in Albuquerque to experience Day 1 of the annual Balloon Festival. Great cycling adventures...Ride On!

| Our Day 1 ride was in Santa Fe, NM at the end of the Old Spanish Trail, the historic pack trail and trade route, which on its route westward passes through Upland and Rancho Cucamonga in Windbreaker Country. |
