Geezrr Posted June 17, 2008 Share #1 Posted June 17, 2008 Anyone in the Farmington New Mexico area? I am here for about 2 1/2 months working and was able to ride down. I pointed the bike down a paved county road today and had a great ride, but did not see another person for about 45 miles and loved it, but got a bit nervous not knowing the area and it was a bit warm, high 90's. Would love a riding partner to show me the local roads. Dennis, in New Mexico, from Montana. If so, give me a call..... 406-261-7015, or email: barrowfamily@bresnan.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geezrr Posted June 17, 2008 Author Share #3 Posted June 17, 2008 Hey Tom, will do if I am still here. That is time frame I should be leaving, but one never knows. I came down through Ouray and sure enjoyed the ride from there to Durango. Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do when in NM!!!!!!! http://www.lotaburger.com/images_index/lotaBig_index.jpg (Click-able image with a link to Blake's) Why do most of my memories of travel revolve around local eats???????

Geezrr Posted June 18, 2008 Author Share #8 Posted June 18, 2008 KiteSquid: I am looking out my motel window and can see a sign for Blakes just down the road! Sounds like a good burger to me. Of course there is a brewpub in town..... Three Rivers Brewery Great beer and food! They serve a brat, well in their own words: Three Rivers’ Brown Ale Bratwurst A Bratwurst, prepared locally in our own Brown Ale. Served on a toasted hoagie with grilled saurkraut, and a side of our homemade Spicy Beer Mustard. That was one of the best brats I have had, and I lived in Germany for 4 years and love brats there. Of course I have not tried all the beers yet, as I do ride down to the pub for dinner, so limit myself to 2 brews. But the ones I have had are delicious! John: If I can figure out where I have been riding, I will post the rides, but so far I have been seeing a paved county road and take it. The roads seem to twist and turn so many times that I have been coming out MILES from where I started and not sure of where I have been. What a great way to explore, me, bike, lots of water and paved roads! I bought a couple maps of the area, but they don't have those roads on them, am looking for a good county map that does not cost to much. Court House has one, but they want $20.00 for it.... to much for me. Takes away from filling up the tank, (bike and mine). Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
