September 17, 2011 (Socorro, New Mexico)
Photos from day 7, Springerville Arizona to Socorro New Mexico. 157 miles with 4000 feet of climbing. Longest distance of our trip. We ran into some rain, crossed the Continental Divide near Pie Town New Mexico, and had a quick ride with the help of some tail winds. A highlight of the trip was passing by the Very Large Array in the Plains of St. Augustin.
