  1. I'm looking for the route that Pedal the Peaks takes in New Mexico.
    They're not doing that route this year, and some ride buddies want
    me to put together a trip for them.

    Has anyone done this New Mexico trip? The cities they visit are:
    Albuquerque, Santa Fe, Las Vegas (NV), Taos, and Los Alamos.

    I'll be grateful for any information you have on these routes.

    Thanks, Jeff. I already have that information, which tells the start
    and end cities for each day. What I'm looking for now is the actual
    roads they travel.

    If you take a road map of New Mexico and look at the cartoon of the route
    you can figure out what roads they take. There aren't that many options in
    New Mexico.

    I did the New Mexico route a few years ago but I doubt I still have the cue
    sheets for each day. I recall it was pretty simple though, sort of like
    "find 22 north out of Alberquerque, follow it until you get to Santa Fe" or
    "find 25 east out of Santa Fe, take frontage road along interstate, or
    interstate where no frontage road exists, to Las Vegas."

    It is a nice route.

    Thanks. I also found some bike-specific maps for New Mexico, which
    grade the roads by their bike friendliness. It looks like finding a
    route won't be that difficult.

    All true, but the useful information, and stuff the cue sheets give you, is
    the in's/out's of ABQ as well as Santa Fe.

    It might be helpful to ask for good routes getting from X location in ABQ,
    to Rt 550 west of Bernallio. Or what's the best route to get into downtown
    SF from Rt 14 south, such as Rancho Viejo Blvd. to Richards Ave. to Rodeo,
    to ......etc...

    Perhaps someone local will be able to better answer, when Terry has a better
    sense of where he'll be starting/stopping.
