Day Nine - Dream Day

Aside from two more flats and a few horrible stretches of road, much of today was what cyclists dream about: watching a glorious sunrise over the mountains, flying along up to 24 mph with a heavenly tailwind, getting in 49 miles by 9am in the cool of the morning.

Some interesting sightings included 2 desert fox, jack rabbit and an owl, sadly all road kill, as well as one very alive desert horned lizard.

We totaled 75 miles, crossing into New Mexico and arriving safely at Lordsburg KOA Campground just in time for a swim! Hope everybody had a wonderful Labor Day weekend?!?!
