It’s been my experience that people who know that they are facing a “really ambitious” ride know what they are facing.

It’s the guys facing such a ride who say “piece of pie” who are completely oblivious.

But also the mansplainers who tell others (ooh, “she may not have a full appreciation”) are equally clueless.


Anyhow, she’s still rolling. Just wondering what her serious “critics” are doing each day on their bikes.

Full disclosure. I’m not rolling anymore, I’m walking. Can’t wait until I roll again, but in the meantime, I’m slowly walking.

It would take me eight days to walk from Las Cruces to Santa Fe, if I walked 24/8.

At my current fitness it would take 100 days, and that would be “really ambitous.”
