Mosquero, NM

If you blink, you might miss it.

Today we biked 50 miles from Logan, NM to Mosquero, a town with a population of 120. That means that when 32 cyclists came riding down Main Street, we increased the population by 25 percent!

Exciting news: we hit our first mountain today. It may have been small, but we climbed 2 miles of switchbacks! Invigorating.

Cowboy Camp tonight. All 32 of us crashed a cowboy camp and pigged out on hot dogs, hamburgers, and cowboy coffee. After the feast, we indulged in songs from the cowboy bible such as "i just found out Jesus loves cowboys" and then the B&B choir reciprocated the nice gesture with our rendition of the Star-Spangled Banner. Awesome night.
